Description
Summary:Given that advances in research continuously raise new ethical issues, a multidisciplinary working group of investigators involved in biomedical research has gathered to discuss and compare ethical viewpoints in their daily practice. The working group has drafted a Charter for Ethics in Biomedical Research that encompasses all the steps in the research process, i.e. from the initial idea to analysis and publication of the results. Based on key principles for ethically responsible research, the Charter may serve as a tool for performing research, discussing research issues and training researchers. The Charter should stimulate researchers to think about their responsibility for research in a progressive, caring society.
