Abstract

Since the end of the XX century considerable high-quality changes take place in science. A number of revolutionary discoveries in the field of physics, biology, information sciences and psychology is made, which become an integral part of reality, significantly transforming natural and social habitat of people. The problem is that introduction of fantastic scientific results in our life happens without deep judgment of an essence and consequences of these changes. The bioethics with interdisciplinary methodology is capable to reveal the scientific potential and possible danger of new convergent technologies, to offer an effective mechanism of the balanced socio-humanitarian expertise of innovations.
