Health Ethics Seminars
The Health Ethics Seminars focus on emerging issues and themes in health ethics; equity, diversity and inclusion; and intersections of health ethics and health law. The speakers are usually affiliated with various healthcare disciplines, programs, and institutions, and have special expertise, practice and/or academic knowledge about specific ethical issues. For the Fall 2024 / Winter 2025 terms, we will be offering approximately 2 seminars/month. Most seminars take place from 12:00 - 13:00 MDT/MST on Thursdays via Zoom application. All talks are open to healthcare professionals, scholars, lawyers, researchers, students, patients, and the public. Everyone is welcome!
