The Center for Bioethics & Human Dignity is pleased to participate in an ongoing strategic partnership with the Christian Medical and Dental Associations and their bioethics initiatives. CBHD has been an annual host for CMDA’s fall Ethics Commission meeting each November for several years. This past year, CBHD research analyst Hans Madueme was able to participate in the proceedings. It is also worth noting that Nick Yates, CBHD’s consultant on pediatric ethics and interim consultant on clinical ethics, recently began his tenure as chair of the commission.
Additionally, CBHD is once again offering a conference wrap-around course at CMDA’s national convention in Ridgecrest, NC from April 29th to May 2nd, 2010. CBHD executive director Paige Cunningham is one of the primary speakers in the bioethics track at the convention and will be supervising students participating in the wrap-around course. The course is offered as an elective for the MA Bioethics degree through Trinity Graduate School. For more information please contact Jen McVey at jmcvey@cbhd.org
Annual membership with the Center includes a subscription to Dignitas (the Center’s quarterly newsletter) and Ethics & Medicine: An International Journal of Bioethics, as well as discounted registration for all Center conferences.
