Abstract:
In the recent past, there is proliferation of innovations in the field of biomedical
sciences. These include primarily the products (pharmaceuticals, food supplements,
technical devices) and services (educational programmes, patient management care
procedures). The pace of increase of innovations have contributed to the economic
growth and the development of the countries. However, the innovation/research may
associate with ethical challenges. Therefore, I would like to devote this editorial to
brief on the potential ethical issues associated with the innovations and the way
forward.
