To commemorate the Institute’s first decade – and showcase the growing field of bioethics – President William Brody has declared April 16-20, 2007 Bioethics Week at Johns Hopkins. Scheduled to take place at various campus locations, Bioethics Week events include special lectures, conferences, meetings, and performances.

Highlights included a powerful drama presented by actress Megan Cole (from Seinfeld, ER, and Crossing Jordan), a talk from author Michael Crichton, and the keynote address of Bioethics Week by U.S. Senator Ben Cardin.
