About the Centre for Law, Ethics and Biomedicine 

The Centre for Law, Ethics and Biomedicine (CLEB) is established with an aim to bring multidisciplinary perspectives to bear on the legal and ethical issues of the day arising out of biomedical research and practice. The Centre endeavors to take up research projects and translate such research expertise and experience into valuable contributions to the medical, ethical and legal dialogue on multiple levels. 

The Centre works collaboratively with legal academia, the key stakeholders in the healthcare sector, biomedical sciences and the policy makers. Apart from its mission to support policy makers in decision making and to produce legislative reviews, the Centre also aims to raise awareness among the general people. 

The focal areas of this Research Centre are the areas where Biomedical Research and Practice intersects with the Law and Ethics (bioethics). Advances in medical research, reproductive science, genetic research, etc. give rise to ethical and legal issues that are well known. The Centre is a platform for learning, teaching and research relating to ethical and legal aspects of healthcare and biomedical practices.

About the Theme: 

Theme: Biomedical Waste Management during the Pandemic 

Covid-19 poses as a challenge to the current society in different aspects. While our efforts have been concentrated on suppressing the spread of Covid, pushing the vaccination drive and ramping up our healthcare facilities, we must also recognize the immense stress put on the biomedical waste management by the pandemic. Biomedical Waste (BMW) is defined as “any waste produced during the diagnosis, treatment or immunisation of human beings or animals or research activities”. One of the key problems currently faced around the globe is due to the huge volumes of waste produced, which includes medical as well as hazardous wastes, including infected masks, gloves and other protective equipment along with non-infected items. Added to this is the aspect of domestic waste management in the light of Covid, as sanitation workers are forced to collect waste from quarantine homes thereby facing great health risks. 

Unsound medical waste management can have serious impact on health and environment of the country. Effective and appropriate identification, collection, separation, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste is required in a scientific and environment friendly way. With the outbreak of global pandemic, the need to discuss biomedical waste management now is crucial than ever.
