  "abstract": "Medical ethics is at once a field of enduring questions and shifting boundaries. This issue of the Journal of Medical Ethics illustrates both. Across its contributions, we encounter recurring concerns of autonomy, consent and the responsibilities of medicine to patients, families and society. These are examined in settings that continue to test their limits: paediatric intensive care, pandemic-era training, reproductive technologies, cultural attitudes to genetic enhancement, institutional responsibility for climate change and the continuing debate over assisted dying. The papers gathered here are rigorous in argument and provocative in implication. Read together, they show that ethical questions, whether located at the bedside, in law or across institutions, require more than principle. They demand attention to practice, to relationships and to context.",
