Strategic initiatives to develop an interdisciplinary organization that contributes research and provides education on ethical aspects of biotechnology

Objective

This strategic initiative is launched to correct the insufficient disciplinarian and theoretical characterization of the branch of Ethics concerned with Biotechnology, and the virtual lack of Biota-Ethics teaching, particularly at the level of the doctorate student. Thirteen of the foremost authorities in the field, from eleven different European countries, will meet twice a year to delineate and approach those aspects of the interphone biology-industry where ethical discrimination is required, consult with "Witnesses" (ranging from Industry to Research Institutes and to NGOs), organize cooperative studies in ice-breaking areas, and discuss means and methods to translate research into education. Two pilot courses and one conference are planned during the three-year initiative, whose eventual goal is the establishment of a European School of Biota- Ethics.
