Starting out the course with the deceptively simple question “What Is Medical Ethics?” The foundation for this course is discussion and debate with every afternoon ending with classes splitting into two to discuss a pressing topic in modern medicine using topics ripped directly from today’s headlines. The course will also cover the ethics of consent, the history of ethics in medicine, social media use and personal responsibility and disparities in healthcare. Students will come away from the course with new insights and the varied viewpoints of their peers giving them a different view on the most important topics in medicine today.
