Thread: Bioethicists - Organ and tissue donation

I'm based in the northwest of the Uk (Chester) and I'm looking for bioethicists who have any experience of organ / tissue donation or the ethical debate surroundig the organ donation register. Does anybody happen to know where I should look? I have links with 2 northwest universities but I'm still stuggling to find these elusive bioethicists!

Any support would be much appreciated

Thanks

The problem with your search for a "bioethicist" is that unfortunately the real bioethicists that actually make the decisions are not scientists at all, and do not dwell in universities. They are the politicians and other people. Just like drug laws never had much scientific reasoning behind them, bio-ethics will likewise be governed by people outside of scientific circles.

would that have anything to do with what happened in Alder Hey ?
