“Bioethical Dialogue on Ethical Considerations in Population Health Research with a Genomic Overlay” will take place at the Battle House Renaissance Mobile Hotel and Spa on Thursday, March 23. This interactive forum will help attendees develop a more robust understanding of the ethical considerations in population health research that is genomics-based, big data-driven, and directed at the goals of precision medicine.

The morning session will consist of a dialogue on the concept of “humility” in theory and practice, especially as it relates to research partnerships with minority communities and vulnerable populations. After a working lunch, attendees will examine the factors that contribute to healing the wounds of humiliation sustained by communities affected by a history of unethical research and how to ensure equitable inclusion of these communities. The goal of this session is to better understand how to enhance community agency and empower partners.

The symposium will begin at 10am and end at 3:30pm. All are welcome.
