Abstract

Modern Medicine faces many complex ethical challenges today. Scientific progress, emerging technologies, evolution of the concept of health, Patient autonomy, and the overcoming of medical paternalism are some possibile examples. Consequently, it seems increasingly important that every physician (and healthcare professional) acquire, during their university training, sufficient knowledge of Bioethics to apply in their future daily clinical practice. Furthermore, it seems essential to define the specific training required for bioethicists, in order to avoid the risk of shortcomings or errors when handling complex cases due to a lack of expertise, knowledge or methodology. This definition is very complex and challenging, as Bioethics is a multidisciplinary field that extends far beyond the medical sphere.
