The 2010 International Conference on Jewish Medical Ethics is sold out.
We hope to see you for the 3rd International Jewish Medical Ethics Conference
15 hours CME credits available
Join a group of medical practitioners and lay enthusiasts for a bouquet of fascinating lectures panels, shiurim , and text based study with some of the world's leading figures in Jewish Medical Ethics.
The aim of this conference is to analyze those ethical concepts that are dealt with on a day to day basis in light of Jewish sources and Jewish law. Jewish Medical Ethics follows a tradition that spans centuries and its impact reaches far beyond the Jewish world. This alone will provide ample material for discussion with Jewish specialists in the field.
We invite not only rabbis and medical doctors but also dentists, pharmacists, therapists, midwives, nurses, biologists, ethicists and interested laymen to join us at this important conference.
The conference will take place at the High Peaks Resort, a beautiful resort located in the midst of the Adirondack Mountains overlooking Mirror Lake, surrounded by tall, majestic mountains, juxtaposed against clear, deep lakes and rushing rivers. A Unique Destination in a Perfect Setting.
Gourmet meals will be provided by Five Star Caterers , under the Rabbinic supervision of the Orthodox Union.
Babysitting services will be provided during the conference. Please email info@torahinmotion.org for details.
