Aim of the study This manuscript summarizes important ethical considerations relevant to embryo research. The aim of this study was to assess the opinion of three categories of doctors regarding the ethical and legislative implications of scientific research on human embryos.  Material and methods To assess the opinion of doctors about the use of human embryos in research, from a related point of view, a questionnaire with 10 questions was made. Each question has three possible answers. Results The results were analyzed according to the age criterion, as follows:18-25 graduated doctors; 26-45 young doctors; 45-65 adult doctors with experience in the field. Conclusions Following the interpretation of the questionnaires, it can be concluded that, in view of the group of people considered, graduated doctors have more knowledge about the current legislation and ethical measures that accompany scientific studies on human biological material. Also, the third group of doctors with experience in the field tend to show the same knowledge as the first group.
