For the first time in history, technologies exist that enable rapid and large-scale analysis of collected data, bring- ing the possibility of personalizing medicine within reach. Such positive prospects are countered by serious ethical, social, and legal challenges. Procedures for access- ing medical data for research purposes, as well as for the reuse of medical data from clinical trials or studies, are in place and include safeguards to protect individual rights. However, no comprehensive scheme to donate one’s medical data posthu- mously exists, with the consequence of depriving individuals of the opportunity to act according to their moral values and preventing valuable datasets from being used in scientific research for the promotion of the public good. While the debate around the use of big data in medicine is far from new, this volume is the first to address the ethical issues with regard to the use of medical data after death. It brings together academic experts from ethics, law, and medical sciences to address the challenges associated with medical data donation. It is the result of a project devel- oped at the Digital Ethics Lab at the Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford, and funded by Microsoft Research. We wish to thank the participants of the two workshops held in Oxford in October 2017 and April 2018 for their contributions to the discussion. Their input has been vital in developing the ideas for this volume and beyond. We would also like to thank the numerous peer reviewers that helped with the preparation of the individual chapters. Finally, we are grateful to Microsoft Research for the generous support of this project, without which it would not have been possible.
