24th Annual Conference on Bioethics

Supported by the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan Foundation

Description:
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  Conference on Bioethics for 2020 focused on Moral Courage and Medical Professionalism.  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 Conference on Bioethics for 2020 focused on Moral Courage and Medical Professionalism.  Completion of this webinar fulfills LARA's requirement for one hour in the area of medical ethics.
