Hi all.
Yesterday the five winners of our recent biology competition took part in an event hosted by the Royal College of Pathologists.
The event was titled "Your body, your consent?" and involved discussion with professional pathologists about issues in bioethics. Here are just some of the questions raised:
How should human tissue be treated during medical research?
What are the laws surrounding use of human tissue in research?
Should people be allowed to buy or sell organs for donation?
When and how is a post-mortem carried out?
Should human tissues be put on public display in museums?
You will be able to find out more about the event soon from the 5 students who took part.
Laura :)
