Investigación biomédica, tratamiento de muestras genéticas humanas y biobancos
Full text linkBiomedical research is fundamental to improving the quality and life expectancy of citizens and increase their welfare. The science´s progress results in the appearance of new analytical tools that creates hope for the treatment of untreatable pathology. However, the scientific-technological advances generate ethical and legal uncertainties that need to be regulated with prudence because affect human identity. It´s necessary to have a regulatory framework to defend the rights of the persons that participate in a biomedicine research. In Spain, the Law 14/2007, de Investigación Biomédica, proclaims the free autonomy to take part in a biomedicine research. This paper is a reflection on the indispensable consent to participate in that research, devoting special attention to treatment of the biological samples in biobanks.Biomedical research is fundamental to improving the quality and life expectancy of citizens and increase their welfare.

Ethical and legal implications of interventions on ‘unpatients’: therapeutic v. non-therapeutic treatments
Full text linkAdvances in modern medicine and technology represent the factual premise to deal with the question of legitimateness and justification of non-strictly therapeutic interventions on a ‘quite new’ class of individuals termed in the 1990s ‘unpatients’. Main aim of this paper is to identify the major ethical and legal aspects concerning this topic today, in order to define the borders of the map traced with regard to the ethical and legal debate some decades ago. A close examination of the ethical dilemmas of non-strictly therapeutic interventions will highlight characteristic perspectives and specificity of treatments administered to unpatients. To some of these peculiarities legal regulation has already provided answers, whereas with regard to other aspects a balance among different principles at stake is needed along with mechanisms set to safeguard their implementation.Advances in modern medicine and technology represent the factual premise to deal with the question of legitimateness and justification of non-strictly therapeutic interventions on a ‘quite new’ class of individuals termed in the 1990s ‘unpatients’.

Benessere e malattia in medicina estetica. Il superamento di una dicotomia ed il ruolo del medico
Full text linkThe market for aesthetic medicine is constantly growing and, except “reconstructive” surgery that responds exclusively to the need to improve the appearance, it presents a number of legal, but also strictly ethical and professional questions. The aim of the authors is, through a literature review, to discuss whether it can still be possible to deal with an idea of aesthetic medicine extraneous to the concept of disease and, therefore, to re-evaluate the position of the aesthetic surgeon with its authoritative professional dignity.The market for aesthetic medicine is constantly growing and, except “reconstructive” surgery that responds exclusively to the need to improve the appearance, it presents a number of legal, but also strictly ethical and professional questions.

Lost in translation. Cosa prendere (e cosa lasciare) del dibattito americano su diritto e neuroscienze
Full text linkRecently, the scientific debate on the relationship between law and cognitive neurosciences has sensibly developed, so much that some argues about the necessity to consider this relationship as a new field of legal disciplines. Several are the issues that should be taken into account, such as the value of neuroscientific opinions and reports within the legal proceeding or the evolution of the concept of legal competence. From a philosophical viewpoint, these new scientific developments call for a re?evaluation of the concept of legal personhood and for a reconsideration of traditional concepts, such as the notion of free will. The aim of the paper is to address the main issues that the “new” relationship between law and neurosciences is raising, offering some possible solution for the integration of neuroscientific concepts in the legal discourse.Recently, the scientific debate on the relationship between law and cognitive neurosciences has sensibly developed, so much that some argues about the necessity to consider this relationship as a new field of legal disciplines.
