Event details
The Genethics Forum is for health professionals - and other interested parties - to discuss and explore difficult ethical and/or legal issues encountered in genetic medicine.
The Genethics Forum takes place three times a year and anyone working in a clinical genetics department is welcome to come along. The meetings are relatively informal in order to facilitate discussion of cases presented from different centres. The meetings usually include a plenary talk on a particular theme of interest, such as for example, a talk by a medical lawyer on the law on confidentiality in genetics. The meetings are multi-disciplinary and aim to have a medical ethicist and an academic medical lawyer present at each meeting.
