Abstract:
This article outlines the particularities of scientists’ responsibility. Their responsibility is to obtain useful knowledge in such a manner that will not cause any distress, harm or detriment to those involved with the experimentation that acquires the knowledge. The responsibilities of scientists can be divided into inner responsibilities – related to their conduct towards their discipline, their profession and colleagues, and external responsibilities – related to the impact of their research on the society as a whole.
