Intensive Bioethics Course
June 2-6, 2008
Washington, DC

Coordinated by the Kennedy Institute for Ethics, this course is designed to address the most challenging topics in health care ethics.  It provides the opportunity for participants from different fields and disciplines to come together for a few days to explore the theoretical framework and practical issues of bioethics with a distinguished faculty.  Sessions in past years have included a wide variety of topics: "Race, Gender, Justice and Reproductive Health Policy," "Respect for Autonomy," "Justice," "Cloning and Genetics," to name just a few. The courses are truly intensive; with much of the intellectual interchange taking place over shared meals and in extra discussions organized around participants' special interests.

More information about the course is expected to be available on the Institute's website.
