ÌÇÐÄTV-Monash Alliance seed funding of about £20,000 has been awarded to Profs (PAIS, ÌÇÐÄTV) and (Monash) to develop research projects on health security ethics. The collaboration will bring together Monash’s and PAIS’s for meetings to work on the conceptualization of phenomena as diverse as terrorist attacks using biological agents and public health emergencies and the ethical risks they pose. Monash is working toward official recognition of their biomedical ethics centre by the (WHO).
