Monday Lunch Live

21 August 2023

Governments and research institutes worldwide have made large commitments to biobanking in recent years, often through combining cohort studies and biospecimen collections.

This Monday Lunch Live panel discussion explores the opportunities and challenges of linking biospecimens to health data in health research, through the lens of ethics and consumer rights. An expert panel explores the topic from multiple disciplines including medico-legal, clinical, ethics, healthcare rights, drawing attention to the potential for health inequity to be increased, rather than decreased through such practices.
