Abstract
The development of modern medicine directly depends on the synthesis of achievements in both fundamental and applied natural sciences. Medicine not only studies the human being but also extends beyond natural sciences, which not only allows but also includes the integration of ethical factors into explanatory research. In the late 20th century, the incorporation of the bioethical component into medical and biological knowledge became particularly relevant due to the rapid development and implementation of new biomedical technologies. The realities of biomedical science and practice, such as resuscitation, transplantation, genetic engineering, and artificial fertilization, make social and ethical issues pertinent not only to the professional medical community but also to society as a whole. Among these are the determination of the social and moral justification of resuscitation procedures, the recognition of socio-ethical restrictions on methods of artificial fertilization, including in vitro reproduction and cloning; the determination of the social and moral acceptability of genetic diagnosis and prognosis, etc. In this article, the author discusses the current issues of deontology and bioethics.
