ABSTRACT

In the era of personalized medicine, in which human biological materials are becoming more important,the demand for biobanks is increasing. However, as the research potential of biological materials made available through biobanks increases, concerns are growing over the processes and consequences of biobank technology. Accordingly, there are calls for the establishment of biobanks and the setting of ethical criteria for research involving biobanks. This article examines new ethical criteria for research involving biobanks using the concept of ethical responsibility presented by Hans Jonas.
