ETHICAL AND SOCIAL IMPLICATIONS OF APPROACHING DEATH PREDICTION IN HUMANS - WHEN THE BIOLOGY OF AGEING MEETS EXISTENTIAL ISSUES

Ethical and social implications of approaching death prediction in humans - when the biology of ageing meets existential issues

Abstract Background The discovery of biomarkers of ageing has led to the Equipment Stands development of predictors of impending natural death and has paved the way for personalised estimation of the risk of death in the general population.This study intends to identify the ethical resources available to approach the idea of a long-lasting dying pr
