This workshop will be held in a half-round to allow maximum participation by all attendees. The intent is to foster lively discussion between presenters and participants. An initial brief review of medical and research ethics will serve as the foundation for the discussion of the clinical and research case studies outlined by the presenters. These case studies will be drawn from real-life occurrences in the areas of medical research, gynecologic practice, urologic practice and geriatrics. The presenters will help guide the discussion, highlighting important issues and working to build consensus in resolving the ethical dilemmas inherent in the case presentations.
