Modern medicine has been operating in recent decades within an extremely detailed and highly demanding regulatory framework, covering every single field of interest, from genetic testing and the introduction of innovative therapies, to clinical trials and research in precision medicine and biomedicine.

The scope, the astonishing expectations, and the potential risks of innovative applications that are constantly seeing the light of day push both international organisations and national legislators to continuously produce rules and control mechanisms, the good knowledge of which guarantees safe activity in both research and clinical applications, with new products and methods.

At BioMedLex, we seek to provide accurate information on the legal and ethical dimensions of modern medicine and to provide expert advice, particularly with regard to innovative therapies and biomedical research, meeting an obvious need for the development of initiatives by the scientific community.

BioMedLex AMKE is an interdisciplinary, non-profit association. Its partners are legal and scientific experts, with specific training and experience both in Greece and abroad. It operates under the coordination of Dr. T.C. Vidalis, a senior researcher of the Hellenic National Commission for Bioethics & Technoethics and an expert in the European Commission on relevant issues.

DISTANCE LEARNING PROGRAM

In collaboration with the International Hellenic University, BioMedLex has developed an innovative distance learning program in English.

The program consists of 24 courses in podcast format, covering a wide range of legal and ethical issues in modern Medicine and Biomedicine, from patient/doctor relationships, clinical trials and assisted reproduction, to issues of artificial intelligence in medical applications and genetic interventions in the human organism. Additional educational material is provided for each course and, upon completion of the program, the possibility of multiple-choice tests for the award of a certificate from the University.
