Why does the 19th century novel Frankenstein continue to resonate within the medical sciences? As part of the National Library of Medicine exhibition Frankenstein: Penetrating the Secrets of Nature, a panel discussion between four members of the Feinberg community will examine the novel and its themes through a medical ethics lens. Each panelist will share their unique perspective and participate in a Q&A with the moderator. 

This lecture is open to the public and will be held in Baldwin Auditorium in the Lurie Research Building (303 E Superior), Chicago Campus. For those outside the Chicago area and anyone who would prefer to attend remotely, a Zoom option is also available.
