The Ethox Centre is dedicated to enhancing patient care by improving ethical understanding and ethical standards. From the beginning the Ethox Centre has combined multidisciplinary research, education, and ethics support to health services and medical researchers. Each of these activities supports the others and there is no clear dividing line between them.

The Ethox Centre brings together a multidisciplinary research group of clinicians, anthropologists, lawyers, philosophers and sociologists. Ethox collaborates closely with researchers in the University of Oxford, other universities and with the health services. Within the University of Oxford, there is particularly close collaboration with public health, primary care, medical sciences, and a wide range of clinicians, epidemiologists, philosophers, social scientists and lawyers.
