“The More Things Change...”: Clouser on Bioethics in Medical Education

  • Chapter
Building Bioethics

Part of the book series: Philosophy and Medicine ((PHME,volume 62))

Conclusion

In this paper, I have sought to highlight the pioneering contributions made by Dan Clouser to the emerging field of bioethics. Building on Clouser’s advice, I have also offered additional suggestions regarding the methods and core content of bioethics instruction in medical schools. Due in no small measure to Clouser’s work, I am confident that bioethics will continue to evolve and expand into the twenty-first century and beyond.
