Bioethics
Author Guidelines
1. SUBMISSION
Authors should kindly note that submission implies that the content has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere except as a brief abstract in the proceedings of a meeting or symposium.
Papers exceeding 6,000 words will not normally be considered. Authors intending to submit a paper of over 6,000 words (including references and footnotes, but excluding tables) should contact the Managing Editor, Clancy Pegg, in the first instance, to explain why their contribution has to exceed that limit.
Any papers with a particular relevance to the Health/Law Policy section, under Daniel Goldberg's oversight should observe the following:
Papers should typically, in addition to their legal/policy analysis, provide a substantial ethical analysis.
We will consider, in exceptional circumstances, papers that lack ethical analysis, provided they offer content that is crucially important for ethical debates.
We will not consider content that is highly parochial and of interest only to a national audience in a particular jurisdiction.
Submitted papers should ideally include references to international legal or quasi-legal documents.
Any papers with a particular relevance to the Empirical Bioethics section, under Lucy Frith's oversight should observe the following:
Papers should address a normative issue/s and have substantial ethical content and analysis.
Papers should integrate empirical methods with ethical arguments in order to address this normative issue.
Papers should be explicit about how the research question(s) asked address(es) the normative issue identified in the aims
Data should be well-presented, making the methodology clear and how the claims in the paper are grounded (i.e. how the empirical data and normative analysis are related and methods of integration).
Papers should seek to show how the results of the study make a wider contribution to ethical debate and practice/policy etc.
Once the submission materials have been prepared in accordance with the Author Guidelines, manuscripts should be submitted online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/biot.

2. AIMS AND SCOPE
As medical technology continues to develop, the subject of bioethics has an ever increasing practical relevance for all those working in philosophy, medicine, law, sociology, public policy, education and related fields.
Bioethics provides a forum for well-argued articles on the ethical questions raised by current issues such as: international collaborative clinical research in developing countries; public health; infectious disease; AIDS; managed care; genomics and stem cell research. These questions are considered in relation to concrete ethical, legal and policy problems, or in terms of the fundamental concepts, principles and theories used in discussions of such problems.
Bioethics also features regular Background Briefings on important current debates in the field. These feature articles provide excellent material for bioethics scholars, teachers and students alike.
