Abstract

Biotechnology has revolutionized numerous aspects of our lives, offering unprecedented opportunities for advancements in various fields, including healthcare, agriculture, and environmental conservation. However, with great power comes great responsibility. The rapid progress of biotechnology has raised numerous ethical, legal, and social concerns that must be addressed to ensure its responsible and sustainable development. In this paper, we provide an overview of the Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) framework, which serves as a critical tool in navigating the complex landscape of biotech research and innovation. We explore the key components of the ELSI framework and its significance in promoting ethical conduct, protecting individual and societal interests, and fostering public trust in biotechnology
