So…it’s a bit late today, but each Friday we’ll be posting some highlights from the Yale Interdisciplinary Center for Bioethics newsletter (AKA “Frimail”), a really fantastic resource for those of us interested in what’s been going on in the bioethics world each week (both in the popular media and in the journals). They also have job and conference announcements, etc. Enjoy!

Introducing Our Collaborators

The Petrie-Flom Center Staff Leave a comment

Bill of Health is lucky to have lined up a few really great institutional collaborators.  Let’s meet them:

First, HealthLawProf Blog will be cross-posting its material on our site, helping Bill of Health achieve its goal of becoming a true one-stop-shop for news and commentary in health law, biotech, and bioethics.

Second, the folks at the Public Health Law Research Program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (headed up by Temple’s Scott Burris) will be providing regular updates on their great work in empirical public health law.  You can also follow them on:

And last but not least, Yale’s Interdisciplinary Center for Bioethics, which puts together a stellar weekly round-up of recently published bioethics scholarship, op-eds, news items, etc. will be allowing us to post a version of that round-up here.  Check for it on Friday afternoons.

If you’re interested in pursuing an institutional collaboration, please let us know.  Contact Holly Fernandez Lynch, hlynch at law dot harvard dot edu.
