Eleventh Annual Health Care Ethics Research Conference

The Albert Gnaegi Center for Health Care Ethics at 性奴调教 is pleased to announce the 11th Annual Health Care Ethics Research Conference on May 3-4, 2024, on the 性奴调教 campus.

The  Gnaegi Center for Health Care Ethics will kick off the conference at noon, CST on Friday, May 3, with keynote speaker, the distinguished lecturer Anya Plutynski, Ph.D. Plutynski will present, "Whence Evidence-based Mental Health Care? A Historical Reconstruction and Reconsideration of the EBM Paradigm."  

This lecture will present the idea that evidence-based mental health care is a product of a particular historical trajectory. This trajectory has led us to a reductive and harmful conceptual framework for both operationalizing mental health outcomes and assessing and training clinicians in mental health care. Plutynski will offer a distinct framework, one that will enable more effective and empirically informed work in mental health care. The key to this, however, is understanding the historical origins of the framework. Understanding the history of science can improve the philosophy of science and ethical clinical practice.

This conference is designed to foster advanced academic discourse in fields related to health care ethics, feature and affirm research by health care ethics students, and increase awareness of ethical issues in science and medicine to the university and wider community.

Registration is free.
