🚨🚨The abstract submission deadline for PGBC 25 is tomorrow! 🚨🚨 Come join us at @ethoxcentre.bsky.social for the friendliest bioethics conference around. Submit your abstract here: ime.datawareonline.co.uk/Event-Bookin...
The theme of 'Disruption in Bioethics' situates bioethics as a disruptive field, challenging the status quo and bringing together interdisciplinary perspectives to address society's most impactful questions around health and science. In particular, those related to environmental, socio-political, technological, and economic developments, as well as their histories.
We welcome submissions from postgraduates in any discipline. This conference is a space for the obvious bioethical entanglements and the niche, uncomfortable, and radical. So, we aim to be a welcoming and inclusive space for marginalised and vulnerable voices, epistemologically and otherwise.We take a broad view of disruption, so topics can include (but are not
limited to):
• Methodological disruption: using non-traditional methodologies to gain new or improved insights into bioethical challenges, or to promote engagement with important bioethical work.
• Decolonising and amplifying voices: moving beyond the Global North and Western-centric frameworks, and what we can learn from social, political and/or epistemic plurality.
• Unexpected convergences: intersections of bioethical research, culture and the arts; what bioethics can learn from ethical principles in action outside health and science.
• Disruptive theories: radical departures from, or reframings of, established bioethical principles.
• Reshaping policy and practice: tensions between academic research and real-world ethical decision-making etc.
Abstracts should be 500 words maximum, in the English language, and not contain any identifying information (such as your name or institution).
