The goal of this workshop is to create a discussion about the ethical boundaries of research and education.

One issue that will be brought up can be summarized as difficult ethical problems. This refers to those types of situations where negative consequences are inevitable and where one needs to carefully balance different legitimate ineterests against each other. Another issue that will be grought up concerns the ethical boundaries of communication. In which ways can we communicate? What can we communicate? Are there questions that are so sensitive that we cannot bring them up?

The ambition for the meeting is to have a discussion characterized by both a descriptive and normative perspective.
