The Nuffield Council on Bioethics is an independent think tank and policy research centre based in London, England. It identifies, analyzes and advises on ethical issues in biomedicine and health to benefit people and society. Its work targets policymakers, researchers and practitioners seeking thoughtful ethical guidance and governance perspectives. As a relatively small organization within the think-tank sector, it engages in collaborations with academic and professional bodies to extend its impact. In 2026 it announced a partnership with the University of Birmingham (alongside the Faculty of Public Health) to develop a collaborative tool, building on prior collaborations with the University of Edinburgh on governance for synthetic biology in plants and with the International Society for Stem Cell Research on horizon-scanning approaches.
