The Ohio State University College of Medicine—LECTURE: Physician Assisted Suicide: A Legal Discussion

OSUMC, Meiling Hall #160 370 W 9th Ave, Columbus

All are welcome to attend discussion of this controversial topic, hosted by BRI-OSUMC. Refreshments will be served. Please use the green "Register" button top right so that we can be sure to have enough food for everyone.

The legal landscape of physician practices is a scarce topic in medical school education. This discussion will clearly cover the legal status and language of Physician Assisted Suicide (or Physician Assisted Death, "PAD") in the US and internationally, the future of PAD in the U.S., and the ethical considerations brought forth by both sides of the argument.

The short HBO Vice episode "Right to Die" (2016) will be shown at the beginning of the hour.
