SUMMARY:ELSI Friday Forum: Biosecurity in the Age of AI and Genomics
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Friday\, July 11 at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT for the next ELSI Friday Forum: Biosecurity in the Age of AI and Genomics with speakers Jassi Pannu\, MD\, Gigi Gronvall\, PhD\, and moderator Stephanie Guerra\, PhD. \nThe convergence of AI and biotechnology is reshaping both the promise and the peril of biological research\, potentially increasing beneficial capabilities to achieve new therapeutics faster while also introducing new risks that nefarious actors could misuse of biology. Scientists have long considered and taken action to mitigate the dual use risks of biological materials. Recombinant DNA technologies increased the urgency of action. Now\, the advent of artificial intelligence\, in combination with more sophisticated genetic read and write capabilities necessitates rethinking of the moral obligations of scientists and policy makers. This session will describe the new types of risks enabled by combined data and biological technologies and discuss proposals for effective governance.

SUMMARY:The 20th annual Pediatric Bioethics Conference: "Narratives and Communication: Bridging Science\, Stories\, and Ethics in Pediatrics"
DESCRIPTION:The 20th annual Pediatric Bioethics Conference—Narratives and Communication: Bridging  Science\, Stories\, and Ethics in Pediatrics—is a three-day conference to explore how communication impacts pediatric clinical care and research as well as the influence of narrative in shaping the ethical practice of pediatrics. \nJoin us for this year’s pediatric bioethics conference in exploring the intersection of narrative\, communication and pediatric bioethics. On July 17\,  we will explore the words we use in pediatric clinical care and research. Words can be used to convey empathy\, demonstrate competence and encourage trust. This year\, we will explore the science\, theory and practice of how we communicate with our patients and families as we seek ways to improve patient experience through quality communication. \nSpeakers will explore questions such as: \n\nHow can clinicians share decisions with parents?\nHow can language choices encourage or prevent shared decision-making?\nDo family members other than parents have a role in pediatric decision-making?\nHow can clinicians deliver bad news while ensuring patients don’t lose hope?\nWhich method for studying communication is most accurate?\nHow can the words we use both perpetuate and mitigate bias and stigma?\nHow does the language we speak affect the way we think?\n\nOn July 18 to 19\, we will explore questions related to the ethical implications of story-telling in pediatrics and the significance of narrative in clinical care and pediatric bioethics. Stories allow us to make sense  of and share perspectives\, beliefs and  experiences. \nJoin us as we critically examine the relationship between narrative\, pediatrics and bioethics\, touching on topics such as: \n\nHow do narratives shape the practice of pediatrics?\nWhat insights do narrative ethics provide?\nWhat are the limits of considering narrative?\nHow can we support moral imagination?\nWho controls narratives?\nWhat is the role of truth in narrative?\nHow do stories promote learning?\n\nEarly bird registration through June 8\, 2025. \nSee registration for full pricing details. \nSeattle Children’s nurses are able to register and attend the conference free of charge thanks to the generosity of our donors. \nDo you have general questions about registration? Contact Emily Rice. \nQuestions about the Treuman Katz Center for Pediatric Bioethics and Palliative Care? Contact Us.
