As the globalization of scientific research increases,the phenomenon of ethics dumping in cross-national research poses new challenges to the global governance of research ethics.Effectively addressing ethics dumping requires a correct understanding of its nature and mechanisms.This paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the recent research ethics events in China that have been included in the discussion of"ethics dumping"—the first human head transplant,the"gene-edited babies"incident,and the"Malariotherapy of cancer"clinical trial,aiming to further elaborate on the defining criteria for ethics dumping events.In addition,the present paper proposes the concept of"sub-ethics dumping"to expand upon existing concepts and criteria.This term is anticipated to help further examine the most fundamental ethical characteristics of the phenomenon described by the concept"ethics dumping"and reflect on the strategies of ethical response and governance in China.
