SUMMARY:Mediation Intensive Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The 4-day workshop will be held at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and will run from 9:00-5:00 each day. The Penn Program in Clinical Conflict Management has offered over 150 workshops and conflict resolution seminars since the program’s launch in May 2010. \nIn this Intensive\, students will: \n\nLearn how to navigate and improve challenging clinical relationships (patient-provider\, family-provider\, inter-staff conflicts)\nLearn the techniques of facilitation among a diverse set of stakeholders\nLearn to effectively manage clinical disputes among and between caregivers\, patients and surrogates through mediation\nDiscover to how to define problems and assess underlying interests to generate mutually acceptable options\nRole-play in variety of clinical situations as both disputants and mediators\nPractice mediation with professional actors\nUse video-tapes of simulations to improve mediation techniques and strengthen interpersonal skills\nReceive constructive feedback in a supportive environment\n\nThis workshop is intended for nurses\, physicians\, clergy\, social workers\, clinical ethics consultants and members of ethics committees who face clinical ethics conflicts in their role in the healthcare system. \nDescription: \nProfessional mediators possess a unique skill set applicable to the facilitation of difficult conversations between individuals in emotionally laden situations. An effective mediation process can generate solutions that address the underlying interests of all disputants and resolve conflicts that appear intractable. This skill set has increasingly been recognized as invaluable to the work of clinical ethics consultants as they navigate conflicts between and among patients\, families\, surrogates and providers. Moreover\, given wide-spread agreement that communication failures lie at the root of many clinical conflicts\, mediation values and catalyzes the effective communication of individual concerns\, values\, perspectives and feelings — all of which are essential to the clinical ethics consultation process. This hands-on Workshop introduces the principal techniques of mediation through the use of simulated role plays with a focus on conflicts caused by communication breakdowns\, highly charged value-conflicts\, and cultural differences. \nInstructor-Student ratio of 1:3. Space is limited. Students can earn Penn course credit or take the intensive as a workshop. Cost of the workshop is $2\,600\, which includes breakfast\, lunch and materials. Tuition benefits can be applied for students taking it for Penn credit. \nWorkshop Instructors: \nAutumn Fiester\, PhD | Director\, Penn Program in Clinical Conflict Management; Associate Chair for Education \nAliza Narva\, JD\, MSN\, HEC-c | Director\, Clinical Ethics Consult Service\, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania \nStacy Smith\, PhD\, MA\, MLS\, HEC-c | Instructor\, Penn Program in Clinical Conflict Management \nMary Walton\, MBE\, MSN\, HEC-c | Emeritus Director\, Clinical Ethics Consult Service\, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania

SUMMARY:Synthetic Biology at the Intersection of Science\, Ethics\, and Policy
DESCRIPTION:Synthetic biology is an interdisciplinary field combining biological and engineering to designing and redesigning genes\, biological pathways\, or organisms to solve society’s major problems and understand biological principles. Rapid advancements in synthetic biology are reshaping how we approach challenges in health\, the environment\, and beyond. However\, these breakthroughs raise questions about what should be permitted and how new technologies should be regulated. To that end\, the global conversation on biotechnology must account for responsible frameworks that guide future scientific innovation. \nThe symposium convenes a diverse community of scholars and practitioners in academia\, industry\, nonprofits and government  for a deep dive into the intersection of emerging biotechnologies\, public policy\, and ethical responsibility. \nThe program is organized around two themes based on synthetic biology products: environmental and therapeutic applications of synthetic biology. The event will feature internationally recognized leaders in synthetic biology research and development\, health communication\, and ethics and public policy. Through thoughtful dialogue\, this symposium will address both the promise of scientific advancement and the challenges of misinformation\, regulation\, and public trust. \nThis event is hosted by the Baker Institute Science and Technology Policy Program in partnership with Rice Synthetic Biology Institute. The event and associated research is supported by grants from Rice’s Creative Venture Fund\, the George and Mary Josephine Hamman Foundation\, and the National Science Foundation (#2223678).

SUMMARY:The Gap Between Need and Care: What Operation Metro Surge Revealed About Healthcare Organizations
DESCRIPTION:Operation Metro Surge created rapidly changing barriers to healthcare access that challenged traditional assumptions about the responsibilities of healthcare organizations. While healthcare and community organizations responded to the same crisis\, they often recognized its impacts differently based on where they encountered patients\, how they gathered information\, and what they were positioned to see. Drawing on the experience of Inspire Change Clinic and community partners\, this Grand Rounds examines how changing conditions reshape healthcare access and organizational responsibility\, highlighting the capacities needed to recognize and respond to emerging barriers to care.
