The 11th Annual International Conference on Clinical Ethics & Consultation (ICCEC) will be in New York City, from 20-22 May 2015.
The theme is "Improving Quality and Professionalism of Clinical Ethics Education & Consultation." Recently clinical ethicists and professional associations have attempted to professionalize our field by developing codes of ethics and proposing formal accreditation of clinical ethicists. Simultaneously, training programs developed new methods for teaching and assessing competency in clinical ethics consultation. This conference offers an opportunity to discuss and analyze these developments.
Proposals are invited from everyone involved in clinical ethics or clinical ethics education: medical educators, medical historians, nurses, philosophers, physicians, lawyers, standardized patient actors, religious counselors, social workers, therapists, and anyone else involved. Proposals may include individual presentations, panels, poster presentations, workshops, and media presentations.
Abstracts accepted starting in July 2014. The deadline for submission of proposals is November 3, 2014. Possible Topics Include
- Clinical Cases that Teach Us
- Models of Clinical Ethics Consultation
- Quality Improvement or Evaluation of Clinical Ethics Consultation
- Quality Improvement or Evaluation of Clinical Ethics Education
- Ethics of Clinical Ethics
- The Interface between Clinical Ethics and Research Ethics
- Historical Reflections on Clinical Ethics or its Evaluation
The ICCEC conferences were founded by George J. Agich and Stella Reiter-Theil to promote critical discussion of the many practical, institutional, and ethical issues associated with clinical ethics, ethics committees, and ethics consultation. This year's conference continues that tradition at the following venues.
