Medical research aims to achieve a better scientific understanding of health and disease. It is firstly undertaken for the improvement of medical care in general, not excluding a potential direct benefit for participants undergoing such research. There is a traditional conflict between the fundamental rights and the dignity of those participating individuals and the interests of science, researchers and even the society. The Convention of Human Rights and Biomedicine of the Council of Europe is a new legally binding instrument for the solution of these conflicts.
医学研究旨在更科学地理解健康与疾病。其开展首先是为了总体上改善医疗护理,这并不排除对参与此类研究的受试者可能带来的直接益处。参与研究的个体的基本权利和尊严与科学、研究人员乃至社会的利益之间存在传统冲突。欧洲理事会的《人权与生物医学公约》是解决这些冲突的一项具有法律约束力的新文书。
