The Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy Institute of Ethics is the world's oldest and most comprehensive academic bioethics center. The Institute serves as an important resource for those who research and study ethics, as well as those who debate and make public policy decisions. The Kennedy Institute of Ethics is also home to scholars who engage in research, teaching, and public service on issues that include protection of research subjects, reproductive and feminist bioethics, end of life care, health care justice, intellectual disability, cloning, gene therapy, eugenics, and other issues in bioethics.

Institute scholars and members figure prominently among the pioneers of the discipline. They are extending the boundaries of the field to incorporate emerging issues of racial and gender equality, international justice and peace, and other policies affecting the world¹s most vulnerable populations. We invite you to join The Kennedy Institute of Ethics today.

The official publication of the world’s oldest and largest ethics research center, the Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal contains articles from today’s foremost experts in bioethics. Covering topics such as analysis and critique of international and domestic policy on human embryonic stem cell research, common morality, genetic enhancement, organ procurement strategies, feminist perspectives in bioethics, active euthanasia, genetics, health care reform, and organ transplantation, the Journal offers a forum for diverse views on issues in bioethics.

The Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal features opinions and analysis by top thinkers in the field, and presents domestic and international perspectives on bioethics. The special “Bioethics Inside the Beltway” section, written by Washington insiders, gives readers a unique insight into important developments and on bioethics activities on the federal level. Selected issues of this groundbreaking journal also include “Scope Notes,” an overview and extensive annotated bibliography on specific topics in the field of bioethics. The Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal brings ethical issues to the forefront while keeping readers abreast of new topics and information pertaining to bioethics. The expertly written essays offer a scholarly forum that addresses diverse views on the critical issues in bioethics.

“It is meant to be controversial. The different approaches will appeal to those who are able to reason rather than shout, regardless of political bent. Highly recommended for larger collections and for any size library where bioethics is a consideration.”

~ Bill Katz,
Library Journal


“This is the journal to have if you wish to pursue or promote the development of broad and deep thinking about bioethics. Many articles, as well as the Scope Notes are keepers, likely to be consulted repeatedly.”

~ Journal of the American Medicial Association
