What Will Bioethics Be Like in 2029?
On the Journal of Medical Ethics blog, Soren Holm has said, "If you know what is going to happen in bioethics in the future here is the competition for you...." How is that for throwing down the gauntlet?
Evidently the Swiss Society for Biomedical Ethics, to celebrate its 20th anniversary, is having a competition asking essayists to conjure up scenarios for the future of bioethics in twenty years. Can anyone really imagine the kinds of issues we will be trying to grapple with in 2029? It sure sounds fun to try.
Hint: I'll write a post later, linking back to this one, where I'll answer this very question. So stay tuned...
To learn more about the details of the competition, read Soren's post or visit the SSBE website for more information.
Happy Writing!
