This book offers a comprehensive analysis of Malaysia's biobanking landscape, examining the complex intersection of ethics, law, and culture in a rapidly developing healthcare research environment.

Adopting a case-based methodology, this book presents realistic scenarios that mirror dilemmas faced by ethics committees, researchers, and policymakers. Each chapter begins with a hypothetical case study followed by detailed commentary analysing ethical concerns, regulatory gaps, and best practices within Malaysia's unique socio-legal context. By exploring globally relevant topics like informed consent in multicultural settings, religious perspectives on tissue ownership, data privacy in cross-border collaborations, commercialisation of biospecimens, and incidental findings management, this book bridges the gap between academic theory and professional application.
