[National Consultative Ethics Committee: forty years of bioethics in France!]

Abstract

National advisory committee on ethics: FORTY YEARS OF BIOETHICS IN France. The history of the National Advisory Committee on Ethics for Life Sciences and Health (CCNE) shows its specificity, the evolution of its competences and its role in the institutional landscape of ethics in France, between independence and openness to the City. While constantly reaffirming its adherence to fundamental ethical principles, the CCNE has been marked by forty years of movements, crises and upheavals in the fields of health, science and society. What about tomorrow?
