Bioética (do grego antigo ἔθος (ou ήθος), "èthos", caráter ou comportamento, costume, e βίος, "bìos", vida) é uma disciplina que trata de questões morais relacionadas à vida humana, animal e ambiental. A bioética tem caráter interdisciplinar e envolve filosofia, filosofia da ciência, medicina, bioética clínica, biologia, direito, sociologia, psicologia e biopolítica, nas diversas vertentes ateísta, agnóstica, espiritual e religiosa. Aqueles que lidam com a bioética são, portanto, especialistas em várias disciplinas e são chamados de "bioeticistas". Considera, portanto, questões onde não existe consenso moral como a fertilização in vitro, o aborto, a clonagem, a eutanásia, os transgênicos e as pesquisas com células tronco, bem como a responsabilidade moral de cientistas em suas pesquisas e aplicações na área da saúde.
