SUMMARY:Constrained Choice: Autonomy and Reproductive Genomics in Pregnancy Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:Prenatal screening\, carrier testing\, and emerging precision medicine tools are rapidly integrating into reproductive care. Yet these technologies operate within healthcare systems that racialize genetic risk\, constrain meaningful choice\, and unevenly distribute access to care. In punitive reproductive policy environments\, receiving genetic information during pregnancy can result in surveillance\, coercion\, and structurally constrained decision-making. Rather than alleviating inequities\, genomics may reproduce longstanding disparities in reproductive health. \nThis forum examines how genomic technologies can be governed and implemented in ways that center reproductive dignity and autonomy. Drawing on decolonial feminist frameworks and empirical analysis of healthcare delivery\, it identifies evidence-based system-level strategies that support informed decision-making without reinforcing structural harm. By focusing on healthcare system pathway beyond individual choice\, this discussion advances a model of genomics-informed pregnancy care grounded in equity\, accountability\, and reproductive justice. \nThis session will be moderated by Jennifer James\, PhD\, with panelists Khiara M. Bridges\, PhD\, and Jallicia Jolly\, PhD.

SUMMARY:Protecting Whistleblowers and Fighting Fraud
DESCRIPTION:Whistleblowers serve the public when they expose fraud in government-funded health care programs\, leading to millions of dollars in recovered costs. Though laws protect whistleblowers\, it still takes great moral courage and leaves individuals exposed to negative consequences. In this seminar\, we are joined by two experts in health care fraud to discuss fraud detection and whistleblower protection. Support provided by the Oswald DeN. Cammann Fund at Harvard University. \nPresenters: \n\nTaryn Vian\, PhD\, Professor\, University of San Francisco\, School of Nursing and Health Professions\nMaya Efrati\, JD\, MPP\, Director of Legislation and Congressional Affairs\, Government Accountability Project\n\n\nModerator: \n\nAlexander Egilman\, Senior Research Assistant\, PORTAL\, Brigham and Women’s Hospital\n\n\nRegister here to receive the Zoom link and call-in details in your automated confirmation email. The seminar recording will be uploaded to our YouTube channel in the weeks following the event date\, pending no technical issues. Registrants will receive a follow-up email containing the recording link when it is ready. \n\nSupport provided by the Oswald DeN. Cammann Fund at Harvard University. Organized by seminar leaders Leah Rand\, DPhil and Aaron S. Kesselheim\, MD\, JD\, MPH. Co-hosted by the Center for Bioethics at Harvard Medical School\, the Program on Regulation\, Therapeutics\, and Law (PORTAL)\, and the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy\, Biotechnology\, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School.

SUMMARY:Uncovering the Past Responsibly: Exploring Ethical Challenges and Recommendations of Ancient DNA Research
DESCRIPTION:Ancient DNA research is transforming how scholars reconstruct population histories\, yet these tools operate within scientific and political landscapes that shape whose ancestors are studied\, how consent is interpreted\, and which communities bear the consequences of genomic discovery. When genetic data are drawn from ancestral remains\, questions of privacy\, cultural authority\, and descendant impact become central rather than peripheral. Without careful governance\, ancient DNA research risks reinscribing historical harms\, marginalizing community knowledge\, and obscuring the lived realities of those most connected to the past. \nThis forum examines how ancient DNA research can be conducted in ways that center ethical responsibility\, community partnership\, and transparency. Drawing on community‑engaged genetic anthropology\, archaeogenetics\, and legal‑ethical analysis\, it identifies evidence‑based strategies for responsible research design\, data stewardship\, and descendant engagement. \nThe discussion will explore key questions: \n\nHow should consent be understood for ancestral remains?\nWhat obligations do researchers hold toward living relatives?\nHow can communities shape research priorities?\nWhat frameworks ensure that ancient DNA research advances knowledge without perpetuating structural harm?\n\nSpeakers: \n\nJada Benn Torres\, PhD (Director\, Laboratory of Genetic Anthropology and Biocultural Studies & Associate Professor of Anthropology\, Vanderbilt University)\nKathrin Nägele\, PhD (Group Leader\, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology)\nmoderated by Jennifer K. Wagner\, JD\, PhD (Assistant Professor of Law\, Policy\, and Engineering & Anthropology\, Penn State University)

Parker\, and Travis Rieder – to engage in a rich conversation about the core themes of the book: the need for new bioethical methods and focus to address contemporary problems not previously at the forefront of the field\, but for which bioethics is essential to producing solutions. The featured authors’ chapters speak to topics including disability and erasure\, incarceration and detention\, climate change and environmental catastrophe\, and the role of emotions\, affect\, and time in reasoning. The conversation will consider how each of these topics are becoming more pressing every day\, and how\, as individuals and communities\, we might think about our responsibilities to address them. Recognizing that bioethics and the events of our world touch each of us who are alive\, this will be an engaged\, public-facing conversation for a wide audience.\n\nFor those unable to attend live\, the conversation will be recorded and viewable on the Center for Public Engagement with Science YouTube page. But those attending live will also be able to participate and ask questions. We hope to see you there.

SUMMARY:Ethics Grand Rounds: Race Matters in Medical Education\, Research\, and Practice
DESCRIPTION:This Grand Rounds examines the historical and sociopolitical construction of race\, critiques its persistent use as a biological proxy in clinical algorithms and medical training\, and explores how such practices shape diagnostic reasoning and contribute to health inequities. Drawing on empirical evidence and clinical examples\, this talk proposes a framework for race-conscious medicine that more accurately reflects the role of structural racism in shaping health outcomes and guides more equitable clinical practice.

SUMMARY:Hard Choices: Ethics in Modern Oncology
DESCRIPTION:The Cancer Bioethics Consortium\, in collaboration with the MSK Ethics Committee\, presents this complimentary virtual conference designed for professionals across the oncology spectrum to explore the ethical complexities of cancer care and research. \nThe Cancer Bioethics Consortium (CBC) is a newly-created organization of healthcare professionals who work in the fields of oncology and bioethics in the United States. CBC is dedicated to promoting greater awareness\, understanding\, and collaboration around the ethical issues that permeate oncology practice and research. \nThe one-day virtual conference\, Hard Choices: Ethics in Modern Oncology\, convenes nationally recognized experts in oncology and bioethics\, representing clinical\, academic\, administrative\, legal\, and governmental perspectives. The curriculum focuses on timely and emerging ethical challenges in oncology care and research through the lenses of bioethics\, policy\, and regulations. Rather than addressing clinical practice directly\, the event will center on the less tangible\, but equally vital\, elements of care. Each session — including those focused on Cell and Gene Therapies\, Tissue Acquisition and Bio Banking\, and the Drug Shortages Panel — has been carefully designed to maintain a non-clinical perspective. Attendees can expect thoughtful discussions that do not offer guidance or recommendations regarding clinical management\, treatment options\, medical procedures\, or therapeutic decision-making. The conference will emphasize broader ethical and policy issues shaping the field\, distinguishing the conference from forums centered on direct patient care. \nThis conference is intended for both clinicians and non-clinicians seeking to better understand the ethical issues that shape oncology practice and research. \nThe program will be held live virtually via Zoom. All times listed on the schedule are Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). Detailed access instructions will be provided in advance of the program. Following the conclusion of the program\, participants will receive access to an online syllabus\, which will include PDF copies of the faculty presentations.

SUMMARY:International Association of Catholic Bioethics 12th Biannual Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Wise Decisions: The place of love in AI-informed health care \nIt remains to be seen exactly what AI will be able to facilitate in the area of health care.   However\, it is already clear that its impact is likely to be limited.  Some aspects of the provision of health care\,  and of the decisions made by patients and their caregivers\,  cannot – or should not – be left to AI.  While factual information is a necessary condition of decision making – and AI is good at gathering facts – facts themselves carry only limited meaning : they certainly do not reveal objective values. As the recent COVID-19 pandemic underscored\, a quantitative/statistical focus on “data” about\, for example\, infection rates and their prevention can lead to a failure to pay attention to other important aspects of human health and flourishing. \nTo articulate meaning and value requires a focus on various dimensions of health care\, particularly those that are relational\, which are not amenable to the tools of AI. To understand and nurture relationships between patients and their caregivers\, which are complex and irreducible to quantifiable data\, we need to unpack the “logos” that shapes these relationships. This logos has cognitive elements\, but also affective\, and conative dimensions involves feeling\, empathy\, motivation\, and even love.

SUMMARY:14th International Conference on Ethics Education
DESCRIPTION:The 14th International Conference on Ethics Education is going to take place in the Netherlands! \nJointly organised by the International Association for Ethics Education (IAEE) and the Department of Ethics\, Law and Medical Humanities from AmsterdamUMC \nWith the central theme ‘Shaping the future: educating responsible professionals’\, this conference aims to bring together educators\, researchers\, academics\, (health) professionals and students for mutual learning and debate on the current status quo in the field of ethics education and Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) and its relevance to shape professionals. What is achieved in training and education\, and what steps are needed in the near future in order to help stimulate responsible professionals? What moral competences are professionals expected to develop and what type of knowledge\, skills\, attitude and behaviour can be trained via (formal and informal) education? How do current innovations (e.g. AI) challenge ethical education practices and approaches? \nThe conference will bring forward keynote lectures from experts in the field to share their latest insights and debate the conference theme. There will also be plenary sessions and opportunities to network and further debate these topics. The first day (24th of June 2026) will be dedicated to thematic and interactive pre-conference workshops\, where participants will be invited to enrol in interactive discussions on topics such as the ethical use of AI in health and education\, moral case deliberation or training in RCR (including open science and reproducibility).

SUMMARY:The Image of God in the Kingdom of Technology
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be human and created in the image of God at a time when we are being reduced to data and algorithms? \nThis conference explores why the ancient myth of Prometheus still matters for thinking about technology\, religion\, philosophy\, politics\, and what it means to be human. In Plato’s Protagoras\, Prometheus steals fire for humanity. The fire represents human skills\, technology\, and the abilities that make social life possible. These gifts help make up for what humans originally lack\, but they also raise deeper questions about human nature and humanity’s place in the world—questions that were never fully answered. \nToday\, technology is changing human life faster than ever before. It is no longer just a tool we use; it also shapes how we think about ourselves and our society. It encourages constant pressure to optimize our lives\, treats identity like something that can be bought and sold\, and promotes a managerial view of people. It also blurs the line between private and public life\, leaving many societies feeling tired and divided. \nIn this context\, the conference returns to a basic theological question: what does it mean to be human and created in the image of God at a time when people risk being reduced to data\, consumer habits\, and algorithm-like patterns shaped by both physical and digital worlds? \nBringing together scholars from theology\, philosophy\, biblical studies\, and political theory\, the conference aims to think more carefully about how technology should be used well. Rather than simply praising or condemning technology\, it encourages thoughtful discussion across disciplines about human dignity and the meaning of the image of God in a technological age. \nIf you would be interested in presenting a paper at the conference\, please contact Boris Gunjevic bg381@westfield [dot] cam [dot] ac [dot] uk

SUMMARY:Health Care Ethics: Catholic Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Care of the sick and dying has always been a core Christian ministry. For much of the past two millennia\, the local hospice or clinic run by Catholic sisters was the only health care facility in town. Today\, many hospitals\, ambulance services\, rehabilitation clinics\, and nursing homes continue to be affiliated with the Catholic church. In this seminar we will explore the values\, tenets and principles that shape 21st century Catholic health care. In addition\, we will discuss whether and how these same principles can also enhance the care offered in secular institutions..

SUMMARY:Ethics of End-of-Life Care: Contributions from the Arts and Humanities
DESCRIPTION:Care for the dying and their loved ones is a most rewarding but also challenging endeavor. Such care can evoke complex moral questions that often defy standard methods of ethical analysis. In this seminar\, we enter into dialogue with the arts and humanities to gain new insights about the human condition\, find meaning in the final phase of life\, and achieve a truly dignified death.
