Workshop: Research Ethics in Disaster Medicine: The Challenge of Vulnerable Subject
The Instituto de Ética Clínica Francisco Vallés of the Universidad Europea de Madrid invite you to participate at the workshop Research ethics in disaster: The challenge of vulnerable subject on 7-8 October 2014
Workshop Description
This will be a joint workshop organised by the COST Action on Disaster Bioethics and Instituto de Ética Clínica Francisco Vallés, Universidad Europea de Madrid. The aim of the workshop is to "fuse" two kinds of scholars: veterans with extensive experience in humanitarian and disaster medicine on one hand with a diverse group of bioethicists and other relevant disciplines (such as sociology of medicine). In order to initiate a concrete joint research we focus on three kinds of vulnerable patients: (1) mother-infant dyad, adolescents, and (3) patients with pre-existing psychiatric disorders (e.g. chronic schizophrenia, autism).
