26th Annual Conference on Bioethics*
Contemporary Challenges in Clinical Bioethics
The practice of medicine entails many moral dilemmas. The intersection of personal and professional values raises significant questions about the rights and obligations of physicians in both clinical encounters and society at large. Many of these tensions have been brought into particularly sharp relief by the recent pandemic and social unrest. To address the changing landscape of medicine in these challenging times, the MSMS Foundation’s 26th Annual Conference on Bioethics will focus on Contemporary Challenges in Clinical Bioethics.
From 11:00 am – 12:00 pm, Keynote Speaker, Dov Fox, PhD, will provide a presentation titled Medical Disobedience. Doctor Fox is a professor of law at the University of San Diego School of Law and director of its Center for Health Law Policy and Bioethics. He is the author of “Medical Disobedience,” “Reproductive Negligence,” and “Birth Rights and Wrongs” as well as the host of the podcast “Donor 9623.”
Other presentations include:
- Legal Issues in Medical Artificial Intelligence
- Beyond Patient Behaviors: Using Structural Competency to Create Health Equity
- Risky Federalism in the Shadow of the Law: How Governmental Structures in Conflict Create Instability for Abortion Care Post-Dobbs
- Value Based Decision Making in Pediatrics and Beyond
