Monday on Lake Effect: Ethics Of Technology Advancement, Patient Safety, On That Note

Monday on Lake Effect:

As technology advances more and more discoveries beg the question: just because we can, does it mean we should? Bioethicist Craig Klugman explores the ethics of technology and why observation is so crucial in the practice of medicine. Then Dr. David Mayer talks about the dire consequences of medical errors and what can be done to prevent them. Plus, cellist Robert Cohen says improvisation is possible for classical musicians.

Guests:

  • Craig Klugman, professor of bioethics and health humanities at the Department of Health Sciences at DePaul University in Chicago
  • Dr. David Mayer, Executive Director of the MedStar Institute for Quality & Safety
  • Robert Cohen, On That Note contributor
