This semester, we've exаmined the pillаrs оf medicаl ethics in regards tо fоur policy positions.

Which ethical pillar influences your thoughts and ideas the most, and why? How has your life experience influenced the way that you think about ethics? Write 2 short paragraphs describing your own ethical decision making (worth 3 points each) Paragraph 1: Discuss how one ethical pillar influenced your thought process regarding the policy position topics discussed in class. How did that ethical pillar influence your arguments regarding two of the policy position topics that you discussed in class? The policy positions were: Theme 1: Should family DNA matching be used in criminal investigations? Theme 2: How far should human gene editing go? Theme 3: Should we change organ donation policies in the United States? Theme 4: Each team chose their own policy. Paragraph 2: Together with your lived experience, how will the ethical pillars influence your decision making outside of class? (You may discuss any of the ethical pillars, not necessarily the one you used in paragraph 1)
