Next was a fantastic discussion/lecture by Rueben C. Warren at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics on population #health, #ethics, #equity, #SocialJustice, and more. This conversation was deep, enlightening, and makes me optimistic for the future of ethical development. Also apparently #TuskegeeUniversity has a bioethics minor, which if you're recruiting folks I would suggest grabbing those students immediately. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbMrQ-skG-Q (3/5)

Next was a breathtaking panel on the responsibility of the #HealthCare field beyond hospitals at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics with Kelsey Berry, Lauren A Taylor, and Rishi Manchanda. The frameworks presented here are applicable to both #tech and #management more broadly, and Manchanda lays down the gauntlet for all of our collective responsibility to improve society. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzgA5dFvff0 (4/9)

Next was an excellent discussion on disparities in #surgery at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics with Douglas W. Hanto, Piroska Kopar, and Theresa Williamson. These bioethics panels are incredibly relevant for other fields, and this one gets at the importance of bringing one's view beyond traditional training to the societal context in which work is situated. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ0nY2spFYs (5/7)

First was an insightful panel on #ethics in #surgery #innovation with Richard Whyte, Theresa Williamson, John Mayer, Martin McKneally, and Louise King at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics. Collaboration between academia and industry is as essential as it is problematic, and in the surgical space in particular a variety of factors intersect and are explored here. There aren't easy answers, but great points examined here. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHkAs-rHLYc (2/7)

First up was an amazing #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics panel on ethical challenges in global #surgery with Bethany Hedt-Gauthier, Rashi Jhunjhunwala, Michelle Joseph, and John Meara. Is it #ethical for surgeons to fly into developing countries for a week, help with surgeries, and then leave? How should surgeons going to those regions involve local medical personnel in their research, and #coauthoring papers? Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA8pYHIYV7c&list=PL5FQGISvWBK3gNFqx2eboI8etItUC2MFW&index=3 (2/6)

Next was a fascinating discussion at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics with John Hick, Darlene Tad-y, Matthew Wynia, Erin Talati Paquette, and Elke Shaw-Tulloch on the #ethics of hospital transfers. This is an incredibly complex topic, one that involves #regulations, professional ethics, #technology, and more. Highly recommend.

Next was a stellar conversation between Monica McLemore and Michele Bratcher Goodwin at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics on ethical and #workforce considerations in abortion care provision. This discussion is pre-Dobbs, but the conversation is prescient and also focuses on how the medical profession should think about #training and #hiring ethical practitioners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DihA3myNlMw (3/7)

Next was a highly engaging talk by @gwagner on the ethics of solar geoengineering at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics. Moral hazards? Inverse moral hazards? Powerful, entrenched industries? This talk has it all. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6QLd1HqSRU (3/8)

Next was a fantastic group of talks by Jason Delborne, Omar Akbari, and Insoo Hyun on the #ethics and implications of #GeneDrives at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics. The rigor, process, and thought going into not just developing this technology but in engaging with a variety of stakeholders and inclusively advancing (or not) is very instructive, highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_Erfg5_kFE (3/5)

Next was a fabulous talk by Patricia King at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics on #racism, #inclusion, and #justice in bioethics. This is one of the founders of modern bioethics, and King isn't afraid to question past decisions in the field or push for more meaningful change. Highly recommend, especially for those in tech and management https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxNEDSxguag (3/10)

First up was an important talk by Susan Miller at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics on how #HoustonMethodist developed their mandatory #vaccination policy.

Last was a fantastic panel at the #HarvardMedicalSchool Center for #Bioethics on exceptions to informed #consent with William Feldman, Neal Dickert, and Carrie Sims. The tech community would be wise to listen to how thoughtfully the medical field thinks about consent, and the rich conversation here indicates what it takes to start to do it right. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPsLIA9Fd-0 (8/8)
