Carl E. Schneider, JD, of the University of Michigan, is the Chauncey Stillman Professor for Ethics, Morality, and the Practice of Law and is a Professor of Internal Medicine. Professor Schneider has written extensively in several fields including bioethics and recently published a casebook (with Marsha Garrison) entitled The Law of Bioethics: Individual Autonomy and Social Regulation.
During his lecture, entitled Has the Law of Bioethics Failed?, Professor Schneider will explore questions such as: Does the law of bioethics accomplish its purposes? Do its benefits outweigh its costs? And, can we look globally at the ambitious agenda bioethics has put into law?
