Joint Colloquium in Bioethics
About
The Kennedy Institute is one of four co-sponsors of the Joint Colloquium in Bioethics, a topical seminar that meets 4-5 times each semester at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, MD to discuss the work of distinguished visiting speakers.
Each meeting includes a two-hour discussion of the visiting scholar's work (circulated ahead of time), followed by an informal dinner on-site.
Discussion is friendly but quite lively as a diversity of perspectives are represented.
The seminars are attended by a small and select group of faculty, graduate students, and post-doctoral candidates from the following member institutions:
Department of Bioethics, NIH Clinical Center
Kennedy Institute of Ethics, Georgetown University
Department of Philosophy, University of Maryland
Department of Philosophy, The George Washington University
Persons affiliated with Georgetown University may contact Matt Burstein for more information. All other inquiries may be sent to Becky Chen at bchen1 "at" cc "dot" nih "dot" gov.
