Sensitive and controversial ethical issues subject of groundbreaking Toronto exhibit.
Medical research and practice have always posed many ethical dilemmas for scientists and physicians, but technologic advances mean that the questions are becoming even more difficult. That is why an exhibit, A Question of Truth, that is being prepared at Toronto's Ontario Science Centre is so timely. It examines the biases and political climates in which science operates, as well as the relative subjectivity of truth, knowledge and reality.
