Welcome to the Medical Ethics Interest Group!
Our Mission
The mission of the University of Florida College of Medicine Medical Ethics Interest Group is to provide students with the foundational knowledge and critical-thinking skills necessary to navigate the complex moral and ethical challenges they will face as future physicians through robust discussion among the MD student body. Through collaborative case-based discussions, faculty-led seminars, and guest lectures from experts in the field, we aim to prepare students to approach patient care with a strong ethical compass and a deep understanding of their professional responsibilities.
