Per HHS, “The Belmont Report… is the outgrowth of an intensive four-day period of discussions that were held in February 1976 at the Smithsonian Institution’s Belmont Conference Center supplemented by the monthly deliberations of the Commission that were held over a period of nearly four years.”
Not sure who was part of the four-day discussion, but per that site, the commission included, among others:
Albert R. Jonsen, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Bioethics, University of California at San Francisco.
Karen Lebacqz, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Christian Ethics, Pacific School of Religion.
I have heard the claim that there were no professional ethicists among the authors of the Belmont Report.
