Emerald Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-78743-572-8 (ISBN)
Life and health sciences and biomedical studies have
developed rapidly over the last few decades raising previously unanticipated
ethical concerns and questions. New and emerging technologies require novel
approaches, protocols and raised awareness to ensure adequate levels of
biosecurity and biosafety as well as the implementation of special measures to
prevent their potential misuse or dual use. This volume brings together an international collection of
prominent ethics experts in health and life sciences, with the aim of providing
clear and comprehensive guidelines for the establishment of efficient ethical
strategies related to current and emerging biotechnologies and health research.
Important current topics in research ethics including
CRISPR-Cas9 technologies, gene editing, ‘big data’ in healthcare and life
sciences, nutrition in medicine among other topics have found their place in
this volume. In addition, the volume discusses the prospects for the
implementation of an international unification of ethical standards in life
sciences.
