SUMMARY:Mises Institute’s Libertarian Scholars Conference
DESCRIPTION:BRI is offering medical students to apply HERE for one of five scholarships by September 27\, 2018. \nThe Libertarian Scholars Conference was originally conceived as a forum for scholars from different disciplines to meet and exchange ideas on the study of liberty. The ultimate goal was to integrate their diverse insights and approaches into a broad interdisciplinary perspective on liberty\, what Murray Rothbard called “the discipline of liberty.” The founders of the conference hoped that this discipline or systematic body of knowledge would give shape and direction to the growing ideological movement of modern libertarianism\, much as British classical and French liberal political economy had guided the movement of classical (laissez-faire) liberalism. This series of conferences succeeded admirably in stimulating scholarly research from a libertarian perspective and attracting many new scholars\, young and old\, to the scientific study of liberty. \nThe libertarian movement has grown tremendously since the early 1980s and so has the need for intellectual guidance from experts in the social sciences and humanities\, whose several disciplines help elucidate the nature of human liberty and its importance in nurturing and sustaining the social order that permits human civilization to flourish. \nWith this in mind\, the Mises Institute\, as heir to the Center for Libertarian Studies\, is reviving the Libertarian Scholars Conference\, which will take place on Saturday\, October 20\, 2018\, in New York City\, the site of the first conference.

SUMMARY:Climate Change and Health - DISCUSSION
DESCRIPTION:The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has issued a new report on the impacts of global warming. This report\, Global Warming of 1.5oC\, contains dire predictions of drought\, disease\, famine and death resulting from greenhouse gas emissions. Is this really how a changing climate will affect us? Will it increase or lessen disease? Our food supply? Weather events like floods or droughts? On October 30\, 2018\, the CO2 Coalition will present a panel discussion of our latest White Paper\, Climate Change and Health. This study\, by Australian physician D. Weston Allen\, examines past\, present and possible future impacts of climate change on a range of human health areas from nutrition to social and mental health\, with insights into energy supplies and sufficiency. The panel discussion will be followed by a question and answer period. \nAuthor: D. Weston Allen\, MD\, obtained a medical degree at the University of Queensland and his FRACGP and Graduate Diploma in Physical Medicine at Sydney University. He pioneered preventive and predictive medicine\, transdermal nicotine for smokers and novel blood spatter studies. \nPanelist: Patrick Michaels\, PhD is the director of the Center for the Study of Science at the Cato Institute. He is a past president of the American Association of State Climatologists and was program chair for the Committee on Applied Climatology of the American Meteorological Society. \nPanelist: James Steele is Emeritus Director of San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus and the author of Landscapes and Cycles: An Environmentalist’s Journey to Climate Skepticism. \nFor reservations\, email info@co2coalition.org or call 571-970-3180.

SUMMARY:Direct Primary Care CONFERENCE 2018*
DESCRIPTION:This conference trains physicians to start or expand a direct primary care practice (DPC) that is based on the private patient to doctor relationship. Through recurring payments (monthly\, quarterly\, or annually)\, patients “contract” directly with their doctor for care for a low fixed fee. \nBy unshackling physicians from paperwork\, bureaucracy\, and reimbursements\, DPC cuts out the middleman to free the doctor’s clinical judgment and create pricing all can afford.\nDPC: A Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice ends the obligation to third party payers and the endless fights with forms\, regulated cook book care\, and seeking reimbursements.\nIn a DPC practice\, you are opting out of the insurance and government systems and you will join the rising tide of thousands of doctors resurrecting their calling to care.\nThese doctors are embracing a practice model that ends the endless data entry and gives you the time to know your patients\, listen\, reflect\, and deliver quality care – all within a business model that generates revenue commensurate with the years you invested in your training to become a physician. \nThis conference is provided by Docs4Patient Care Foundation.
