Short Description:

This project wants to gather information on the ethical issues that are involved in the efforts to rationalise medicine and health care on the basis of empirical evidence (evidence based medicine). By an identification of the values that play a role in these efforts, these values can be subjected to professional and public debate. This debate will be stimulated by reports, academic publications, a bibliography, a set of recommendations and an expert meeting.
