Come and join the last panel of our plenary sessions! We are discussing two crucial topics for the future of bioethic(ist)s: "Mentorship and Leadership"!

In our plenary sessions of yesterday, we listened to a thought-provoking talk by @ZekeEmanuel and a great panel discussion with @PublicEthics @alena_buyx @samiahurst Florencia Luna and Jerome Singh. Do not miss today's final plenary starting at 13:45!

Thank you everyone for joining the parallel sessions of this morning, especially to all the great presenters! For our midday break, we have organised a nice packed-lunch that you can enjoy in the beautiful gardens outside.

Today's second keynote speaker @GanguliMitra lead us through a fantastic journey in her talk titled "Bioethics as if Everybody Matters", starting from this very essential question for us all in the bioethics community!

Listening to your inspiring thoughts was a breeze of fresh air - both metaphorically for the field of bioethics and also quite literally given the warm afternoon here in Basel!

Thanks so much to the first keynote speaker Dr. Christine Wieseler for delivering the inspiring talk entitled "Disability Bioethics: Mapping the Rough Ground"!

Prof. Bernice Elger, head of @ibmbch and co-chair of @wcb2022, concluded the welcoming remarks for the conference. We now look forward to listening to the plenary talks and panels of today, and to all the parallel session!

Also, thank you to Prof. Dr. Andrea Schenker-Wicki, president of @UniBasel_en for her welcoming message!

PD Dr. Tenzin Wangmo of @ibmbch , chair of @wcb2022, officially kicks off the conference in the first plenary session. Thank you so much to all who are present in person or online!
