This seminar for Shankweiler Scholars is an exploration of ethical, humanitarian, and sociological aspects of medical practice and healthcare systems. Weekly readings will be organized by the participants in response to individual student interests as informed by their experiences studying medicine as a human endeavor. Student-led discussions will illuminate critical and complex issues in healthcare including socioeconomics, gender equity, racial justice, and differing views of health, death, and dying. Practicing clinicians and alumni will participate in the seminar as guest discussion leaders, presenting case studies that encourage students to grapple with specific ethical problems that medical professionals face.
