Centre for Science and Ethics

Navigate research ethics with us!

We work to make Ethics the centre of decisions taken across all spheres of life.

The work of the centre responds to the pressing need for ethics in addressing challenges presented by meteoric advances in genetics, genomics, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, biomedical research, computer science and other fields.

Our research and public engagement activities promote awareness and ethical literacy that foster wider discussion on the ethical requirements for scientific research and implementation of scientific advances. We strive for data-driven ethics that shapes science, research and education.

Principal step towards the development of bioethics and research ethics in Russia.

The Russian Science Foundation has announced a statement of the expert councils on bioethical issues in research supported by the Foundation.
