Abstract:
This paper examines, and further reflects, on Segun Gbadegesin’s position on the question of African bioethics. In an attempt to situate bioethical discourse within the garb of cultural appropriateness, Gbadegesin gives an African perspective of bioethics by exploring the attitudes of the Yoruba people (an example of an African culture) towards bioethical issues. Through this, he calls for a transcultural bioethics, which will underscore the universality of bioethics without undermining the significance of cultural identities. This paper challenges as a “myth?, the assumptions and positions of Gbadegesin in his recent discourse on African bioethics. By raising and adducing reasons to fundamental questions (such as: How authentic is Gbadegesin’s reportage on the Yoruba attitude to bioethical issues? How plausible is the possibility of a universal/global bioethics that is anchored on the recognition of all cultures in bioethical discourse? Is there a distinctive African bioethics? If yes, what is the nature of such an inquiry? What are the bioethical principles employed in solving bioethical issues in African culture?), this paper defends the position that there is not yet an African bioethics.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bioethics.v3i3.12558 Bangladesh Journal of Bioethics 2012; 3(3):4-11

Abstract:
This essay explores how two popular game franchises, BioShock and Portal, have addressed bioethical issues such as genetic modification, research ethics, and autonomy. BioShock and Portal are set in bioethical dystopias that simulate the absence of ethical restraint. The former is set in a city that that allows unregulated genetic modification, and the latter in a research facility controlled by overseers whose only concern is scientific progress. These simulations allow players to gain insight into bioethical issues and contribute to theoretical debates in bioethics by showing the possible consequences of violating bioethical values.

Abstract:
Columbia University offers two innovative undergraduate science-based bioethics courses for student majoring in biosciences and pre–health studies. The goals of these courses are to introduce future scientists and healthcare professionals to the ethical questions they will confront in their professional lives, thus enabling them to strategically address these bioethical dilemmas. These courses incorporate innovative pedagogical methods, case studies, and class discussions to stimulate the students to think creatively about bioethical issues emerging from new biotechnologies. At the end of each course, each student is required to submit a one-page strategy detailing how he or she would resolve a bioethical dilemma. Based on our experience in teaching these courses and on a qualitative analysis of the students’ reflections, we offer recommendations for creating an undergraduate science-based course in bioethics. General recommendations include: 1) integrating the science of emerging biotechnologies, their ethical ramifications, and contemporary bioethical theories into interactive class sessions; 2) structuring discussion-based classes to stimulate students to consider the impact of their moral intuitions when grappling with bioethical issues; and 3) using specific actual and futuristic case studies to highlight bioethical issues and to help develop creative problem-solving skills. Such a course sparks students’ interests in both science and ethics and helps them analyze bioethical challenges arising from emerging biotechnologies.

Abstract:
Considering the recent rapid developments in science and technology, it is quite important for individuals to be able to make decisions about their own future and their children's future for the society in which they live and to know how to establish a balance of risk and decision. For this reason, teacher training programs should be planned to internalize pre-service teachers' awareness of responsibility. Regarding this point, the development of pre-service science teachers' bioethical values was examined on a class level basis using survey research. Research sample consisted total of 286 pre-service teachers of Science Teacher Training Program. Bioethical Values Questionnaire was applied to determine pre-service teachers’ bioethical values. As a result of analyses, it was determined that pre-service teachers’ bioethical values increased according to their class levels they attended. It was stated that pre-service science teachers’ bioethical values related to sub-dimensions of “Benefits of Biotechnology Applications”, “Science and Ethics”, “Reproductive Technologies and Cloning” and “Control of Genetic Interventions” were increased based on participants’ class levels. In addition, the results of the study revealed that pre-service teachers also had some concerns about the benefits of biotechnology applications.

Abstract:
The article highlights and analyzes the concept of “digital bioethics” as the use of digital methods for empirical research in bioethical discourse. The leader of bioethical research in Russia, Boris Grigoryevich Yudin, predicted an expan­sion of the range of social technologies that ensure effective public participation in the discussion and solution of problems in the field of science and technol­ogy. The spread of bioethical discourse in the digital space caused the formation of the concept of “digital bioethics”. The concept of “digital bioethics” has not been used so far in the Russian research literature, however, a number of topics discussed by Russian authors are close to the various aspects that digital bioethics draws attention to in its disciplinary formulation. Digital formats for understanding complex ethical issues in the public space, without canceling anal­ogous forms of bioethical discussions, give rise to a new reality of bioethical dis­course, which becomes the subject of digital bioethics using digital methods of empirical bioethical research. At the same time, there is no change in the un­derstanding of the subject of bioethics. Digital methods of data collection and analysis contribute to the development of empirical bioethics through attention to the subjective experience of an individual and social groups, reflected in pub­lic discussions in the digital space, and can also describe the digital landscape of the operation of bioethical principles.

Abstract:
Development of biopharmaceuticals is a challenging issue in bioethics. Unlike conventional, small molecular weight drugs, biopharmaceuticals are proteins derived from DNA technology and hybrid techniques with complex three dimensional structures. Immunogenicity of biopharmaceuticals should always be tested in clinical settings due to low predictive value of preclinical animal models. However, non-human primates (NHP) and transgenic mice could be used to address certain aspects of immunogenicity. Substantial efforts have been made to reduce NHP use in biopharmaceutical drug development, e.g. study design improvements and changes in regulatory policy. In addition, several expert groups are active in this field (e.g. NC3Rs, BioSafe, and Biopharmaceutical Technical Group). Despite that, there is an increasing trend of use of NHP in preclinical safety testing of biopharmaceuticals, especially regarding monoclonal antibodies. Other potential bioethical issues related biopharmaceutical drug development are their cost/effectiveness ratio, clinical safety assessment, production of biosimilars, and comparison of their efficacy with placebo in countries without intention to market. Identification of the human genome has opened many new bioethical issues. Development of biopharmaceuticals is an important bioethical issue for several reasons. It connects all aspects of contemporary bioethics: bio?medicine (e.g. clinical trials in vulnerable subjects), animal welfare and the most recent ad?vances in biotechnology. In particular, biopharmaceutical drug development is a challenging issue regarding treatment of rare diseases.

Abstract:
This descriptive research assessed the level of awareness of millennial undergraduate students of a private university in the Philippines on bioethical practices such as abortion, surrogacy, euthanasia, eugenics, organ donation/ transplant, and in-vitro fertilization that give rise to bioethical issues. The author utilized a validated self-made instrument to gauge the respondents’ knowledge, understanding, and awareness of these bioethical practices and issues. The findings show that all the student-respondents have a high level of knowledge that bioethical practices, such as abortion, surrogacy, eugenics, organ donation, and in-vitro fertilization do exist in modern society. They also reveal that Psychology, Education, and Nursing student-respondents have a very high level of understanding of the meaning of these bioethical practices. The results further reveal that Education students are the most highly aware of how the advancements in science lead to the emergence of new bioethical issues. The implications reflect the views of the millennial undergraduate students on the bioethical issues brought about by the advancements in medical science. The millennial cohorts are the driving force shaping the future; hence, there is still a need to reinforce and develop the understanding of bioethics as respect for life which can help them make ethical choices in the dilemmas that they may face in life.

Abstract:

Medical paternalism is a common practice in Pakistan, it can be justified on the principles of beneficence and non-maleficence in certain clinical situations but in the research medicine it can pose many ethical implications.

Islam is a communitarian religion but it provides full autonomy to the competent individuals. Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PM&DC) codes of ethics have been formulated in line with the World Medical Association and it also states in its preamble that it follows Islamic bioethical laws. The PM&DC guidelines do not provide substantial system for obtaining consent from patients and the research participants. Neither does it comply with the Islamic bioethical laws nor with the International Declarations. The language used in the codes is ambiguous that can have different interpretations and there is no legal support from the civil law of the country. These factors supplemented with the cultural values have elevated the status of the physician and gives complete authority to them for medical decisions.

Medical paternalism in research medicine can be a violation of the dignity and autonomy of the research participants. Patients are used as means and commodities rather than end in themselves. The research involves risks of harms no matter how low these risks are – the matter of concern is that research participants are involved in research accompanied with risks about which they are not aware.

Abstract:
This thesis examines from a socio-bioethical perspective British premenopausal cancer patients’ experiences with making oncofertility decisions. It uses original empirical research into the experiences of a small group of patients to address social, clinical and ethical concerns about how patients make decisions in the medical context. Several North American studies have noted that the ways in which cancer and fertility concerns are addressed in the medical context may affect patient decision-making. This thesis focuses specifically on how these experiences are influenced by the medical encounters in the UK, by exploring how female cancer patients make decisions about their future fertility. The thesis also examines whether social and bioethical theories of autonomy and agency adequately capture how decisions are made in practice, using empirical data to interrogate existing theory. To address these questions, semi-structured interviews were conducted with premenopausal cancer patients. Data from the interviews were analysed using sociological and bioethical theories in order to improve understandings of how this patient group makes decisions, and how they feel this experience could be improved. This research therefore contributes to the growing body of literature seeking to identify how patients make decisions within the medical context and what types of support are necessary to address the needs identified by patients. Furthermore, the thesis demonstrates how sociology as a discipline can be seen as a constitutive part of bioethics, with this project serving as an example of one way that bioethical research can be conducted through a sociological lens.

Abstract:
Introduction: Medical practice implies an increasing amount of bioethical issues that may negatively impact on health care professionals wellbeing. However, to date, little is known about the experience of burnout and (moral) distress related with end of life and bioethical issues in everyday working life. Objectives: to study variables (meaning in life, stress, moral distress, ethical climate, resilience, positive and negative affects) that may impact on health care professionals dealing with end-of-life and bioethics issues. Materials and methods: The study will be conducted using a multi-method design, using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The anonymous questionnaire administered one time only to each participant was composed by socio-demographic questions, Maslach Burnout Inventory – General Survey, Schedule for Meaning in Life Evaluation, Maugeri Stress Index, Moral Distress Scale-Revised, Hospital Ethical Climate Survey, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, Positive Affect and Negative Affect Scale. Semi-structured interviews have been conducted, too. Main results: Managerial support and ethical vision of patient care were negatively related to emotional exhaustion, directly and through moral distress. Professionals high in resilience and positive affectivity benefited more from the protective effect of managerial support on emotional exhaustion through moral distress. Moreover, resilience improves healthcare professionals’ wellbeing and professional self-efficacy, directly and indirectly, as mediated by the ethical vision of patient care. Highly resilient professionals benefit more from the positive effect of ethical vision of patient care on wellbeing in presence of high managerial support. The qualitative part shed light on both stressors (e.g. emotion management regarding death, communication of poor diagnosis/prognosis) and protective factors (e.g. social support, positive approach and value of past experience) experienced by palliative care professionals and medical student. Moreover, palliative care professionals considered the Italian law on Advance Directives as a useful instrument for self-determination and protection despite the presence of some critical aspects. Discussion: This study may help to focus on risk and protective factors to be monitored during the health care provider’s career. It may also provide information useful for preventing and supportive interventions in medical practice with end-of-life and life-threatening patients.

Abstract:
Recent developments in social neuroscience have stirred up increased interest within the bioethical debate (for a review see: Specker et al. 2014). Moral enhancement is a concept that directly embodies the idea of making brain science work for the social and moral good. In recent ethical discussions about biomedical means of moral enhancement, scholars have focused on so called ‘direct means of moral enhancement,’ discussing the ethical permissibility of modifying the emotional underpinnings of moral behaviour (Douglas, 2008; 2013; Persson and Savulescu, 2008; Savulescu and Persson, 2012). However, critics have argued that such modification only seems like moral enhancement, that behavioural modification is not ‘true’ moral enhancement, for the reason that it changes behaviours without making agents better moral agents. Critics have also noted that it can undermine freedom (e.g. Harris, 2011; see also: Douglas, 2014). This thesis addresses the ethical issues relating to enhancement. In the first part of this work I consider conceptual issues surrounding the concept of moral enhancement and argue that moral enhancement is plausible if we adjust our expectations to match those we have of cognitive enhancement. I examine the difference between pro-sociality and morality, and argue that an increase in empathy and reduction in anger cannot be seen as straightforward moral enhancements. The second part examines the objections related to moral disagreement, medicalization and narrative identity. The third part of this work focuses of the issues related to freedom and agency. I argue that voluntary direct emotion modulation, if embedded in appropriate reflection, is a prima facie desirable way of moral enhancement.

Abstract:
With the re-emergence of values education in the school curriculum in the last decade, science is viewed as one of the key teaching domains, and in particular, socio-scientific education is increasingly perceived as instrumental in helping students explore underlying beliefs and values, develop reasoning and critical thinking skills to make informed decision on socio-scientific issues. This thesis develops a conceptual basis for a model of teaching socio-scientific issues for secondary or high school students. The teaching of controversial issues needs a stronger theoretical base and a more viable pedagogical strategy to facilitate critical thinking, argumentation and decision-making skills. Previous research has shown that science classroom discourse was largely teacher dominated and tended not to foster adequate reflective discussion of scientific issues nor forge well-informed decisions on controversial issues. The use of ethical frameworks serves as a pedagogical tool as well as provides a process to help students make ethical judgements and rationally and relationally justify them.The five ethical frameworks explored in this model are categorised as rights and duties, beneficence/non-maleficence (utilitarian), autonomy, communicative virtues and Christian moral. The features of controversy that are made explicit to the students through the use of ethical frameworks are situated in the area of human genetics and transgenic plants in Australia. Such a study is undertaken in the realm of bioethics within the context of an ethically pluralist society. The present investigation focuses on the teaching of a Year 10 biotechnology class over a period of ten weeks in an evangelical Christian college in metropolitan Perth, Western Australia. Using an interpretative case study approach, a mixed method data collection and action research as the methodology, analyses of instructional strategies, teachers and students’ beliefs/values/attitudes and achievement outcomes were conducted and evaluated accordingly.This study is unique in that it presents one of the few studies that incorporates Christian/faith values in the ethical frameworks that enables the researcher to explore the connection, if any, between cognitive learning and moral reasoning and moral development, and in the wider sense, the link between cognitive learning (scientific literacy) and ethical reasoning.Research findings indicate that through the use of the simple framework in comparing the pros and cons, students in the comparison group developed a limited measure of competency in reasoning and developing arguments to express their viewpoints. However, students have also been noted to be more motivated and engaged with learning science because of its increased relevance to their personal lives and societal concerns. On the other hand, the experimental group students utilise the five ethical frameworks to orientate the thinking process to explore possible alternatives, to prioritize conflicting and competing ethical claims, to examine from different perspectives and to integrate their information by linking from knowledge content and/ or claims to well-grounded conclusions. Essentially, the use of ethical frameworks guides students’ understanding of the socio-scientific issue and helps them to formulate the crux of decision-making.Data analysis from both qualitative and quantitative aspects suggest that the use of ethical frameworks has brought about a marked improvement in the students’ ability to reflect critically, reason analytically and make rational decisions about their own ethical values in handling socio-scientific issues. Research finding also confirms the the important role of the teacher in implementing the ethical frameworks as a reasoning and argument-developing tool in socio-scientific education. On a modest level, research from the present study has shown that using the frameworks for both comparison and experimental groups has instilled in teachers some measure of confidence; with the five ethical frameworks proven more satisfying and effective as a pedagogical tool. This study suggests that, from a teacher’s perspective, the use of ethical frameworks could be a viable tool in socio-scientific education, and this needs to be supported by the teacher taking a procedural neutral stance, role-modelling the scientific reasoning process through carefully crafted questions, creating a collaborative and caring learning environment and a variety of student-centred teaching strategies.The incorporation of faith values in the ethical frameworks confirms previous research that there is the possibility that other concepts besides that of justice and fairness could be the key in determining how one judges what is morally right. The present research also suggests that there are different problem-solving strategies in making moral judgements beside stage schemes of justice described by cognitive developmental psychologists and educators. The present study also suggests that allegiance to belief systems and ideologies can sometimes override the influence of one’s own sense of fairness in making decisions of moral rightness. This is an important factor to consider in mapping out curriculum for moral education and socio-scientific education.Overall, the analysis suggests that socio-scientific education programs focusing on dialogical and reflective processes could help to facilitate socio-scientific reasoning. The study also argues for the importance of providing a sound epistemological and dialogical environment for socio-scientific education in a science classroom through the use of carefully constructed and evaluative metacognitive tools of learning in scaffolding and structuring reasoning and argumentation process, of which the use of ethical frameworks has proven to be modestly effective.

Abstract:
In the wake of the 2001 anthrax attacks in the US, States Parties to the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention started to discuss the potential malign application of biological research and technology. This thesis examines how this issue of dual-use has been developed, discussed, and how solutions have been proposed. In order to do so, the thesis follows a neopragmatist approach. As a neopragmatist methodology is largely underdeveloped, the thesis explores some of the key aspects of neopragmatism, specifically its openness to various methods and theories, by directly applying it to the topic. As a result of this approach, the thesis starts with exploratory empirical research, which follows Bruno Latour’s Actor Network Theory. This research reviews how the problem of dual-use has been discussed in three communities: politics and security, ethics, and science. One of the results is that dual-use has primarily been discussed in the security community while the other two were only marginally involved. The proposed solution to the problem by the security community is to place the burden of responsibility on the scientific community. The second part of the thesis then uses theory, Niklas Luhmann’s social systems theory and Martin Heidegger’s work on questioning technology, to critically challenge this solution developed in the security community. The thesis concludes by identifying approaches to help deal with the dual-use issue. It also examines how the adoption of a neopragmatist methodology has influenced and guided the thesis.

Abstract:
The article discusses the trend of secularization of bioethics issues in Islam, the relevance of scientific research in the West, in which 10 priority among the many bioethical issues in Islam have been identified. Experience of Islamic international organizations in addressing ethical and legal problems of bioethics has a transnational nature, which can provide an ethical consensus of Muslim discourse in situations of complex bioethical pluralism in the Muslim world.

Abstract:
Contemporary legal science is facing the challenges of the modern age. In an attempt to answer the current very complex questions, which, beside from the questions from the field of law, are closely related to questions from the fields of medicine, philosophy, psychology and sociology, bioethical and moral dilemmas are opened. Their correct understanding are required certain theological knowledge, since that questions of life and death are basic religious topics. Contemporary bioethical issues such as in vitro fertilization, surrogacy, organ donation and euthanasia are some of the most topical and controversial. Faced with various personal biomedical dilemmas, people often turn to representatives of the Church, who give their answer from the aspect of church bioethics, which is different from secular bioethics. The author will try to answer the question whether the position of the Church should (and may) be ignored when determining the legal framework concerning the aforementioned issues, or whether the cooperation of the state and the Church is more necessary than ever before. What consequences can we face if constructive dialogue is absent?

Abstract:
The situation around Ukraine can be described now as a «global disaster». Outlining the range of ethical and bioethical problems caused by military action, the security issues of our citizens come to the fore (especially vulnerable categories - children, the elderlypeople, people with special needs, pregnant women); problems caused by the inability to provide medical care (from lack of resources and medical staff to lack of ways to evacuate the wounded); environmental problems caused by the actions of the aggressor; problems arising from forced migration. Despite the ethnic, religious, socio-cultural and moral differences of different members of modern society, there is a need for a new understanding of tolerance and its limits, which can be realized through the use of ethical theories of distributive justiceandvirtue ethics. Key words: ethical theories, bioethics, virtue ethics, global disasters

Abstract:
Contemporary general social development reflects its challenges in inducting into three fundamental categories: digital, green and health. Each of the three categories above has its civil (private) law issues, which primarily concern the concept of property itself. The paper focuses on key stakeholders from three mentioned categories: digital assets, animals and human body parts. Technology has had a significant impact on human life, and as a result, a person, during his/her lifetime, accumulates a huge number of digital assets. The most important questions concerning digital assets are: can they be treated as corporeal things (or incorporeal entities equalized with corporeal things), and what are the users’ legal rights over these assets? To a certain extent, the mentioned question is transferred to animals as well, through various animal ethical and biocentric considerations. In a situation where animals also greatly influence human life, the question arises whether the conception of thing(s) in the context of animals has become inadequate. Can we still treat animals as property, or are new concepts needed to understand animals’ legal status? Are new concepts also necessary for understanding the (civil) law status of human body parts? Increasing biomedical technological development has led to different ways of preserving human life and health. However, such preservation carries with it a priori various legal and bioethical questions that need to be answered in order to distinguish whether and under what conditions parts of the human body can be the objects of property rights. In observing the mentioned civil law and in certain situations, (bio)ethical and legal philosophical problems and questions, the authors approach analytically, comparatively and casuistically.

Abstract:
In this study, we aimed to develop a computer-aided simulation technique to predict the axonal extension in the neuronal network evolution processes for design new scaffolds to activate the nerve cell and promote the nerve regeneration. We developed a mathematical model of axonal extension by using phase-field method and evaluated the validity of the mathematical model by comparison with the experiments. In the previous experimental studies, the peripheral nerve scaffold has been introduced to guide the axonal extension. Damaged part of nerve was replaced by the artificial tube as the scaffold to induce the axonal growth through the artificial tube and regenerate the nerve network. However, the scaffold made of biodegradable materials has a problem that it is degraded and absorbed before the nerve regenerate, and then the nerve cannot regenerate. Therefore, there is a need for the design and development of a scaffold for nerve regeneration to promote nerve regeneration. For that purpose, it is necessary to understand the difference between the axonal extensions by the surrounding environment, such as the shape or materials of the scaffold for nerve regeneration. In particular, the numerical technique to analyze the remodeling process of the nerve in the scaffold is strongly required to be established because the in-vivo experimental observation technology at the micro scale, bioethical issues in the animal experiment and requires time and money are also remained as unresolved problems. In this study, we developed a new simulation code which employed the phase-field method to predict the two-dimensional dendritic and axonal growth processes of nerve cells on cultivation scaffolds. We curried out the phase-field analyses to make clear how the parameters of Kobayashi–Warren–Carter (KWC) phase-field model affected on the morphologic growths of dendrite and axon. Simultaneously, we had observed the axonal extension process by using the PC-12D cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) on two-dimensional cultivation dish. Based on these axonal extension observation results, we approximated the morphological changes and establish the phenomenological model for phase-field analysis. Finally, we confirmed the validity of our newly developed phase-field simulation scheme in two dimensions by comparison with the experiments.
