A Lofty Responsibility
Researchers study a newborn baby responding to smells such as curry and garlic. Certain flavors are familiar to babies because they were exposed to them in utero (through their mothers’ diets). Conducting research on infants and other minors involves additional ethical considerations, and informed consent must be obtained from parents or legal guardians.
