"Ebola, Emergency Medicine and Global Bioethics"

I am going to participate on a panel discussion at the University of Cincinnati, East (Medical) Campus.  You are all invited to attend.  "Ebola, Emergency Medicine and Global Bioethics" will convene on Monday October 13, 2014 from 2 to 4pm, on East Campus, Building S1.203&204. The confirmed panelists are (in alphabetic order):
  • Bob Frenck ( Ebola and Vaccine Development)
  • Mike Linke  (International Regulatory Issues)
  • Jason McMullan (Emergency Medicine)
  • Monica Mitchell (Community Issues and Clinical Psychological Issues)
  • Catherine Sherron (Thomas More - Ethical and Philosophical Issues)
  • George Smulian (Infectious Disease and Epidemiological Issues)
Each Panelist will make a 10mn presentation, and then we will open it to the audience for Q&A.


Would you like to help me think about my part of the presentation?  I will post some basic resources here for you to read and post questions.  Please post other articles as you find them.
