      Advanced directives
      Congress Themes
      A case report in New England Journal of Medicine (published here:http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc1713344?query=TOC) describes a patient arriving at the emergency department with a tattoo on his chest stating "Do Not Resuscitate". This presented the team with a conflict regarding the way they should relate to this tattoo and what would be the right thing to do. While they engaged the ethics consultant first, they also managed to find the formal advanced directives of that patient so things became simpler and clearer for them. This case raises ethical and legal questions. Would it be legal to respect that tattoo with no other available information ? some of these questions and similar ones will be addres sed during the World Congress on Medical Law and Ethics in Tel Aviv. Join the deliberation! (and submit your own abstracts here: https://www.wcml2018.com/abstracts)

      Medical Law and Bioethics in Films
      Med law&ethics in Film
      One way to engage in a meaningful Bioethical or Medical Law related discussion is based on films (or TV series). During the 24th World Congress on Medical Law and Ethics we will have an opportunity to experience both active learning through a workshop using excerpts from films and passive learning through watching a full length movie followed by a discussion. Films are increasingly being used as a teaching tool for Medicine, Health Professions, Law, Decision making etc. One example, is the following list of "51 Gerontological Movies": https://www.pinterest.com/issidoron/gerontological-movies/ You are invited to share such lists or recommended movies in specific clinical or legal fields, and more specifically - ones that arise bioethical or medico-legal issues. As we still have time to choose the movies to be watched and discussed during the Congress "mini film festival session" - You are invited to recommend your chosen film, and why you think it would be a good choice for us.
