Research In biobanking, valid informed consent is crucial to protect participants’ autonomy in relation to the use of their biological samples and their associated data for future research.

description In biobanking, valid informed consent is crucial to protect participants’ autonomy in relation to the use of their biological samples and their associated data for future research.

Consequently, few types of modified informed consent models (broad, dynamic and meta consent) have been proposed by bioethics scholars to address this issue. Capturing the differences between these types would give a better understanding in recommending which type of the consent model provides better autonomy protection in the future. Despite several biobanks already established in Malaysia, little is known about the informed consent approach in biobanking research and its ethical challenges. This study aims to identify the informed consent approach in the Malaysian biobanking and its ethical challenges.
