- Join Dr. Gerard Magill and Dr. Jonathan Crane as their presentation sheds light on what parents and families can expect from medicine to support a good death. Medical technology increasingly complicates the dying process, especially challenging religious belief and ethics. As Catholic and Jewish scholars, they will discuss controversies and perspectives including withdrawing life-sustaining treatment, palliative care measures & assisted suicide, and criteria of death for transplantation of organs and tissues. Additional lectures to follow in January and March 2015. One contact hour of CME and CEU available upon request Registration required at http://www.bsvaf.org/bio-ethics
