Bioethics and scientific practice: crossing paths for Cultural Development in institutional frameworks

Abstract

Scientific institutions, having as their essential mission the construction, transmission and generation of knowledge, from their professional action condition the assimilation and reproduction of certain individual and collective practices that become cultural patterns, and have their expression in all spheres of social life. Hence the need for this action is governed by rules that regulate the interaction of the subject on the environment where it operates in their scientific practice. In this article the elements that allow to base how the link between bioethical postulates and scientific practice are taxed to Cultural Development are addressed. The study involved the use of theoretical research methods such as the analytical-synthetic, the historical-logical and the hermeneutic, which favored the conformation of the epistemological framework for the guidance of the analysis.
