We've partnered with the Emory Transplant Center to bring you "A Kidney Donor's Experience in Donating to a Stranger" on January 12, 2021 at 11:30 am ET!

This presentation will allow Martha Gershun to tell her experience in volunteering to donate a kidney after reading a newspaper article about a woman who needed a transplant.

She and her friend John Lantos had many discussions about her decision and about some of the unexpected issues that arose during Martha's evaluation as possible donor. In this presentation, Martha will tell parts of her story and John will reflect on the history of bioethical controversies about kidney donation and allocation that may have shaped the current culture and preserved some archaic policies that may discourage donors and exacerbate disparities.

Hope to see you there! Join using this link information: https://bit.ly/3EhzdX0

Joel Zivot, an alumnus of the MAB program here at the Emory Center for Ethics recently published this article on the the similarities between death rattle and capital punishment.

Leave your thoughts in the comments.

Research on silencing the death rattle in a dying person raises questions about who benefits: dying people or those around them?
