PRESENTATIONS

PRESENTATIONS

"Can you talk to us about something ethical?" is a question often asked to medical ethicists.  To help future enquirers, here is a list of presentations which I regularly give at conferences, hospital and academic departments, research and study days, etc. They are all interactive and involve plenty of case examples. Some even include a magic trick or two to illustrate a point or principle. The presentations are typically 1-hour long but can be tailored to your audience and any other requirements. For other topics, or if you have any questions, please contact me at daniel.sokol@talk21.com.
