Bioethics Class for St. John's Seminary Students in Boston Offered by the NCBC

The National Catholic Bioethics Center offered the bioethics class for transitional deacons this semester at St. John's Seminary in Boston. 

Father Tad proctored the lectures, which included presentations from NCBC staff ethicists, from NCBC president Dr. Joseph Meaney, and from Stephen Hannan, M.D., Pulmonary and Critical Care Physician at Health Park Medical Center in Fort Myers, Florida. The NCBC has proctored the bioethics class for more than 10 years, and this year, a number of the lectures were presented via ZOOM.


Fr. Tad is shown with the students in the class during Dr. Hannan's in-person lecture. Students were from a number of different dioceses in Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Hanoi and Đà Lat in Vietnam and Kumbakonam in India. Elizabeth Lee, who oversees the grading of the seminarian's exams for the NCBC, also attended Dr. Hannan's lecture and met the students. 



Dr. Hannan presented a lecture on "Medical Issues Associated with CPR, Intubation and Mechanical Ventilation."
