VOLUME 6, NUMBER 1
8 MCG Specialties Rank First in State
The Medical College of
Georgia Hospital and
Clinics delivers the best
care in the state in eight
medical specialties, according to U.S. News and World
Report.
The national news magazine reviewed the specialty
services of more than 1,000
hospitals from every state in
the nation and 10 metropolitan areas. The rankings
were published in America's
Best Hospitals, compiled by
the editors of the magazine
in conjunction with the
National Opinion Research
Center at the University of
Chicago.
Sixteen specialties were
ranked in Georgia. The specialties in which MCG
ranks first in the state are
AIDS, cancer, endocrinology, geriatrics, gynecology,
neurology, orthopedics and
otolaryngology. MCG ranks
second in the specialties of
gastroenterology, rheuma-
tology and urology; Atlanta's
Emory University Hospital
ranks first in those areas,
according to the survey.
"The showing of the
Medical College of Georgia
Hospital and Clinics in this
survey is evidence of the
growing recognition of our
outstanding reputation as a
healthcare provider not only
in Georgia and the
Southeast, but the nation as
a whole," said Patricia
Findling-Sodomka,
Executive Director of the
hospital.
Keep New Year's Resolutions Small, Attainable
INGRID HEGGOY
January is a time many
people decide what they
want to do better in the
coming year. But it also is
an important time to look
at what you did well during the previous year,
according to a Medical
College of Georgia therapist.
"Give yourself an honest appraisal of those
things you did well, rather
than just focusing on those
things you didn't accomplish," said Joseph
Fournier, Assistant
Clinical Professor of
Psychiatry and Health
Behavior and an individual, family and group therapist at MCG.
He suggests making

two lists: one of things you
want to accomplish in the
coming year and a second
of things you did well in the
last year. "It helps to
remember to focus on the
positive, not only on the
negative aspects of what
you have done and in which
direction you would like to
move," Mr. Fournier said.
It also helps to set small,
attainable goals rather than
major changes you're
unlikely to stick with,
according to Mr. Fournier.
Try to set specific, positive
goals and give yourself a
time frame.
For example, if last year
you resolved to lose 20
pounds, this year try
resolving to eat fruit rather

that sweets for dessert five
times a week. Rather than
resolving to exercise more,
decide to park your car one
block farther away from
your office and walk.
Instead of resolving not to
let stress get to you, try
allocating 15 minutes of
your lunch hour for relaxation.
"New Year's resolutions,
if you decide to make them,
aren't generally a good way
to go about making major
changes in yourself or your
habits," Mr. Fournier said.
"They can be useful steps
toward future goals down
the road.
"If you resolve to
change a little habit, rather
than to make sweeping
lifestyle changes, you're
more likely to succeed," he
said. Think of resolutions
as stepping stones toward a
larger, long-term goal. For
instance, if your goal is to
keep in better touch with
friends who don't live nearby, your resolution might
be to write one quick note
each week. Then you might
find, at the end of the year,
that it wasn't too difficult to
follow through with your
resolution, because you've
given yourself not just a
vague statement, but specific steps to take."
Also, if you didn't succeed with last year's resolution, don't just make the
same one again. "That's
just reinforcing failure, and

the key to making resolutions a useful step is to
keep them positively
focused and reachable,"
Mr. Fournier said. Instead,
if you feel it is still an area
you want to improve, try
looking at why you weren't
successful last year and
find a way to increase your
chances of success in the
coming year.

If you happened to overhear someone yelling,
"Lights, camera, action!" on
campus recently, it wasn't
your imagination. The cameras, actors, producer,
director and other trappings
of Tinseltown that descended on campus Dec. 2-13
were all in town for a good
cause: spreading the word
of research ethics nationwide.
MCG was selected as the
site to film a series of videotapes on research ethics
that will be distributed to
research-affiliated institutions nationwide this spring.
The series is produced by
New York-based film producers Amram Nowak and
Manya Starr, a husbandand-wife team, of Amram
Nowak Associates. The nonprofit project is sponsored
by the American
Association for the
Advancement of Science
with funding from 17
National Institutes of Health
institutes and centers.
MCG's involvement in
the project can be traced
largely to Dr. Lowell M.
Greenbaum and his longstanding commitment to
research ethics. Dr.
Greenbaum, recently
retired Dean of the School
of Graduate Studies and
. Yicfi.President'far. « v. v. \ .'.
Research, developed and
teaches a class on scientific
communication and ethics
at MCG.
. Dr. Greenbaum,
Professor Emeritus in the
Department of
Pharmacology and
Toxicology, has long realized that issues involving
research ethics come in
shades of gray far more
often than in black and
white. He wants
"We try to
educate
students and
faculty that
their
professional
reputations
are always
at stake,"
researchers to be prepared
for potential mine fields that
could sabotage both their
careers and the public trust.
"Research brings on the
pressure for promotion,
which comes by way of publications, research grant
Dr. Greenbaum said. "In
addition, we have our egos.
We want to be nationally
recognized, internationally
recognized. So when things
aren't going in the direction
you wish, some people can't
handle it and result to fabricating experiments, falsifying data and even plagiarizing."
But whereas many academic institutions once covered up such misconduct for
the sake of their own reputations, the climate is completely different today.
"MCG, for instance, is very
forthright about exposing
misconduct," Dr.
Greenbaum said. "We try to
educate students and faculty
that their professional reputations are always at stake,
and any kind of accusation
has an affect on the future
of their career."
Of course, society as a
whole is the biggest loser if
researchers compromise
their ethics, Dr. Greenbaum
stressed. "The consequence
of fraud is not only lack of
public confidence, but the
great expense of moving
people in the wrong direction to continue research."
Public suspicion of scientists also translates into
reduced research funding.
And at its worst, compro-

...Ethics
mised ethics in the field of
biomedical research can
actually mean a matter of
life and death.
But can integrity be
taught? Dr. Greenbaum has
great confidence in the
overall character of the scientific community, but he
noted that even highly principled people face ethical
dilemmas in the research
environment. Dr.
Greenbaum wants
researchers to be prepared.
In addition to developing
the ethics course, Dr.
Greenbaum also wrote and
directed a series of miniplays in 1992 dealing with
ethical dilemmas in
research. He cast the roles
with students and faculty,
had them videotaped by
MCG's Television Services,
then presented the plays to
research-affiliated segments
of campus. As he hoped, the
stories provoked considerable debate, deliberation
and introspection.
They also caught the eye
of AmramNowak
Associates, which envisioned a much larger audience for Dr. Greenbaum's
message.
"My husband and I
became very interested in
research ethics after a case
in which a woman in a lab
fudged results to make her
look good," Ms. Starr said.
"The whole issue of ethics
and pure science research
was interesting to us, and
we thought it would be of
general interest." She and
her husband approached
the American Association
for the Advancement of
Science, which endorsed
the project and got the ball
rolling.
The couple then contacted Dr. Greenbaum, and
MCG administrators agreed
to have the videotapes produced on campus.
"I think it was a natural
coming-together," said Dr.
Barry D. Goldstein, MCG
Vice President for
Academic Affairs. "Dr.
Greenbaum is quite well-
Science, and we're very
pleased they decided to do
the work here."
MCG donated a temporary office for the crew, lab
space and other areas on
campus for videotaping and
the services of MCG's
Division of Health
Communications, including
Television Services. Actors
were hired throughout the
Southeast; some 150 audi-
known across the country
for his efforts in promoting
research ethics. I think it's
good for MCG to be associated with any effort to promote research ethics, and
this will be another mechanism to do that.The series

graduate students were
recruited as extras.
Ms. Starr wrote the
scripts, collaborating with
scientists from throughout
the country to assure relevance and authenticity.

different kinds of problems
of the greatest interest things like fudging data,"
Ms. Starr said. "Then I
invented characters and stories that would best bring
the issues to life. I wanted-it
to be interesting, recognizable to real scientists and
hitting the crucial issues."
She also purposely wrote
unresolved ethical conflicts
into the scripts to trigger
thought and discussion.
The project went wonderfully smoothly, she said,
notwithstanding a few
prickly details, such as
noisy equipment in labs
used for sets and actors
with less-than-flexible
schedules.
"Most of these actors
have regular jobs, and we've
had to do lots of accommodating," she said. "I'm used
to New York, where actors
say, 'Any time, any where,
as long as you need me,'"
Ms. Starr said with a laugh.
Dr. Greenbaum stresses
that the videotapes are
unlikely to prompt applause.
"Nobody sees these things
and comes away happy," he
said. "It's not something
people want to hear goes on
in this profession. But I
believe if people understand
the pressures of research
and the consequences of
misconduct, we will have
prevented a number of individuals from going astray."
