The mission of the International Internet Preservation Consortium (IIPC) is to acquire, preserve and make accessible knowledge and information from the Internet for future generations everywhere, promoting global exchange and international relations.
The Emerging Science and Bioethics Advisory Committee (ESBAC) was the main UK advisory body on emerging healthcare scientific developments and their ethical, legal, social and economic implications. It was sponsored by the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for the Department of Health (DH), England. Its membership included representation from all UK Health Departments for whom ESBAC also provided advice. ESBAC also provided a forum to consider and develop coordinated advice across the wider science, health and academic communities to help set priorities in response to new developments.
Rechtsonzekerheid voor artsen bij uitvoering euthanasie onacceptabel Artsen houden zich goed aan de euthanasiewet, zo blijkt uit de tweede evaluatie van deze wet. Maar zij worden geconfronteerd met rechtsonzekerheid over het toetsingskader. Daarom steunt de KNMG de aanbeveling van een code of practice voor de toetsingscommissies en dringt zij aan op duidelijkheid over de waarde van de schriftelijke wilsverklaring bij wilsonbekwame patiënten. De KNMG reageert hiermee op de tweede evaluatie van de Wet toetsing levensbeëindiging op verzoek en hulp bij zelfdoding (Wtl).
Un débat interne à l’ensemble de l’Institution ordinale a été conduit avant cette expression publique. Il en résulte que la fin de la vie d’une personne dans ces situations implique profondément le corps médical selon les principes éthiques de bienfaisance et d’humanité. L’Ordre national des médecins propose donc de promouvoir une meilleure connaissance de la loi Leonetti et d’envisager des améliorations susceptibles de répondre à des situations exceptionnelles. L’Ordre national des médecins apportera sa contribution au débat sociétal quant à l’euthanasie délibérée et au suicide assisté.
“The current legal status of assisted dying is inadequate and incoherent...” The Commission on Assisted Dying was set up in September 2010 to consider whether the current legal and policy approach to assisted dying in England and Wales is fit for purpose. In addition to evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of the legal status quo, the Commission also set out to explore the question of what a framework for assisted dying might look like, if such a system were to be implemented in the UK, and what approach to assisted dying might be most acceptable to health and social care professionals and to the general public.
The treatment of inherited mitochondrial abnormalities in human embryos using donor mitochondria is an advancing area of research. The techniques involved could have profound implications for future generations. This project will explore the ethical issues relevant to affected families, potential donors, researchers, medical professionals and others trying to understand and respond to the therapeutic possibility of mitochondrial transfer.
The Galton Institute exists to promote the public understanding of human heredity and to facilitate informed debate about the ethical issues raised by advances in reproductive technology. It also publishes studies in the historical development of these topics. The Institute is a registered charity and does not seek to advocate particular applications of scientific understanding or reproductive technology, only to ensure that those taking decisions do so in the light of all relevant facts and after consideration of all relevant issues. A fuller statement of the Institute's objectives is available elsewhere on this site.
Cash incentives and the payment of funeral expenses are two ideas being put forward to encourage people to donate human organs and tissue. The Nuffield Council on Bioethics is asking the public if it is ethical to use financial incentives to increase donations of organs, eggs and sperm. Paying for most types of organs and tissue is illegal in the UK. The public consultation will last 12 weeks and the council's findings will be published in autumn 2011.
The MDU has grave concerns about how the new policy* on whether or not to prosecute the offence of assisted suicide, will be applied to doctors. “The MDU’s advice to its members remains that doctors approached by patients for advice about suicide should not engage in discussion which assists the patient to that end. Members who are faced with requests for help from patients, including for example the provision of medical reports, should contact us for advice.”
