Loma Linda University School of Religion will present the program “Facing Ethical Dilemmas with Faith: Bioethics and World Religion Case Conference” on March 12 from 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. at Centennial Complex.
The program will explore the nature of bioethics in a multicultural society where patients and health care professionals frequently come from different religious backgrounds and ethical understandings. Six case studies will be presented examining instances in which a patient has made a special request based on their religious beliefs that is at odds with the recommendations of the care team.
Scholars and professionals of various legal, medical, ethical and religious backgrounds will dialogue with the audience in the interactive case conference-style event.
All are welcome to join in this free event. Pre-registration is required; lunch will be served. Reserve your seat at religion.llu.edu/caseconference.
The event is co-sponsored by the Center for Understanding World Religions and Center for Christian Bioethics.
