NYU Center for Bioethics

A big thank you to Travis Rieder from the Berman Institute of Bioethics at Johns Hopkins University for coming to NYU yesterday to talk about his newly published book "Catastrophe Ethics: How to Choose Well in a World of Tough Choices"! Our students and faculty alike enjoyed hearing a deeper dive into some of the topics from the book, as well as having time to ask any questions they may have had about the concepts they had learned about. A special thanks to the Bioethics @ NYU undergraduate club for their assistance, and for co-sponsoring the event with us!

Many thanks to Dr. Johann Frick for coming to campus and giving his enlightening talk, "The Value of Life, the Value of Virtue." Following the talk, the Bioethics faculty took him to dinner to continue the discussion. Our Bioethics colloquium series is a great way to connect with academics from around the world while learning about a wide variety of topics in philosophical bioethics!
