About
We know that the field of medicine has been the source of many controversies regarding various discoveries made recently, i.e. cloning, GMO plants, euthanasia, patient bias, etc. But sometimes, we don't want to mention these in public for fear of starting an argument. Not anymore! At the Med Ethics Lounge, you can calmly discuss such issues and your opinions without fear of reprisal and a willing ear! We just ask that you provide the same to others.
