Intensive development of modern science expands the scope of bioethical issues. Debates on ethical aspects of bioinformatics, neurotechnology, genetics, bioeconomics, ethics of preclinical and clinical trials are actively developing. Axiology of bioethics is of particular relevance. It is the structure of valuable categories that determines the priorities of ‘human science’ development taking into account the historical experience of interaction between a person and community, and criteria of civilized changes in the actual and perspective (prognostic) sense. Development of bioethical axiology is influenced by the challenges of technological development of the current decade, the issues that objectively demand a reaction on the part of the state and society. One of the main tasks of modern bioethics is to develop bioethical thinking, and grounds for using bioethical axiology in the scientific process. Health axiology, which represents a fixed conscious attitude to the issues of health developed during the academic process to be subsequently used during a labor process, is practical expression of bioethical thinking. Bioethical dialogue is essential as it urges young perspective specialists to examine novel bioethical scientific issues and achieve technological country-specific goals. Focus on young scientist’s potential totally corresponds to the cross-cutting goal of axiological, prognostic and educational tasks of bioethics. Bioethical thinking is developed based on the experience of the school of ethics of scientific research, which is an educational project intended for young Russian researchers.
