Stanford Docs' Kids to Have to Start Buying School Supplies

Stanford is, starting October 1, banning all gifts to physicians from drug companies.  The policy  also seeks to bar publishing ghost-written articles ("Individuals are prohibited from publishing articles under their own names that are written in whole or material part by industry employees.") and requires disclosure of relationships with drug companies in publications.  It does not speak to expert witness relationships and whether those should be disclosed.
