Legal Trends in Bioethics is a column created by Sigrid Fry-Revere for the Journal of Clinical Ethics. The column "tracks bioethics related issues through all stages of litigation, legislation, and regulation at both the federal and state levels, as well as occasionally mentioning exceptional legal developments in other countries."[1] Dr. Fry-Revere started the column for the first edition of the Journal of Clinical Ethics, and authored it through the Winter edition of 1992. She took a hiatus from publishing it between 1992 and 2007. The column remained in print at the charge of various successive authors.
In the Spring of 2007, Fry-Revere resumed authorship of the column. Beginning in the Fall of 2009, the column will only appear online through the newly created Center for Ethical Solutions. Compared with publishing in print, for which "the lag time between when events were reported and published (about 4 months) [in the Journal for Clinical Ethics] made the information less useful," Internet publication offers the potential for instantaneous dissemination.[2] Fry-Revere therefore reasons that the Internet is an ideal medium to host the column, since "the information provided will be more up-to-date and relevant for anyone interested in tracking legal issues in bioethics."[1]
Now edited by Alison Mathey, the column is a feature of the Center for Ethical Solutions' website. The new editions of the column and the previous ones authored by Fry-Revere are available on the website. [2] Editions by other authors are available through the Journal of Clinical Ethics.
