ABSTRACT

When biobanks receive human materials donation, the biobanks do not have specific information of future studies that will use the donated materials. Therefore, until now, biobanks have received broad consent from the donors of human materials. Recently, the development of information and communications technology makes it possible that the biobanks recontact with the donors and receive reconsent from them. With such change, the supporters of dynamic consent have appeared. Therefore, in this paper, I have examined which type of consent may preserve the autonomy of doners well. The dynamic consent can be divided into 'the dynamic consent in the large sense' and 'the dynamic consent in the narrow sense'. I have concluded that the dynamic consent in the large sense can preserve donors' autonomy better than the dynamic consent in the narrow sense and the broad consent.
