Legal issues to address when managing clinical information across Europe: the ECIT case study (www.ECIT.info).

This paper identifies issues which will need to be addressed in pursuing the aims and objectives of the European Classification of Infertility Taskforce (ECIT), namely: to establish classification codes for infertility management; to improve the consistency of infertility information collection by specialist centres, particularly but not exclusively by computerised systems; to use these codes to enable the transfer of infertility information from specialist centres to national infertility data registries; to develop a Grid linking the data held in European infertility data registries; to use Grid processing to mine the data in the European infertility data registries to optimise patient management improving the effectiveness of treatment and reducing the risk.

Insuring the uninsured: finding the road to success.

This article outlines various strategies that have been proposed to expand health insurance. Many have been tried in limited ways, and the article describes the experience with those attempts. The discussion is organized from the perspective of the opposing points of view: approaches that would support private coverage and largely rely on demand incentives and approaches that presuppose a more direct government role. The article reaches no conclusion about which strategy might be a wiser course of action. However, it does take measure of the likely effects of each strategy where early experience or objective analysis is available.

Deserving the last great gift.

If there is part of us that we equate with our "self," it is surely the brain. What feelings and expectations, then, are stirred if we decide to give this part of ourselves--or the brain of a loved one--to be sliced, labeled, frozen, and shipped to a laboratory somewhere in the world to be used for research? The director of one of the world's largest brain banks discusses the ethical challenges, implied obligations, and standards of behavior that brain banks must meet to earn and retain the trust of those who give the last great gift--one now indispensable for progress against illnesses ranging from Alzheimer's disease to schizophrenia.
