Summary: | Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is increasingly recognized as a growing public health issue worldwide.

In response, from the point of view of both research and clinical neuroethics, we provide a framework that emphasizes the need to maximize benefits and minimize harm, promote justice, and foster respect for persons within a global context. |
