AD104

What do vampires, zombies, Frankenstein’s monster, and werewolves have to do with bioethics? More than you might think.
This Halloween, we’ll use these classic creatures of horror to spark a lively discussion about real-world ethical questions in medicine and science. Vampires raise questions about the ethics of blood donation and resource sharing. Zombies bring up issues of autonomy, consent, and how societies should respond to pandemics. Frankenstein’s monster invites us to think critically about medical experimentation, innovation, and the limits of body modification. Werewolves lead us into debates about genetics, predisposition, and what shapes personal identity.
By exploring these “monstrous” case studies, we’ll uncover the very human dilemmas they represent. Join us for an evening of spooky storytelling, spirited conversation, and fresh perspectives on the ethical challenges that shape our world.
