Details

This insightful collection highlights the ethical, legal and societal issues associated with the increasing role played by artificial intelligence (AI) in medical biobanks, a key research resource in the global study of disease prevention and the improving of individual care.

Although AI has the potential to speed up health research, the book considers the numerous questions that the technology poses, from the building of trust to the prevention harm to individuals, vulnerable groups or entire populations. Examining the tension between scientific progress and the safeguarding of individual rights, and covering key issues such as accountability, data bias, transparency and liability, the book considers the legal landscape in which biobanks operate, and what layers of governance are required to oversee such an important resource in a fluid technological age.

A timely volume that brings together scholars and experts from the social sciences, ethics and law, this important book will interest researchers and professionals in Biomedicine, Law, and the broader Health Sciences.
