Sociologist Renee Fox to Discuss Bioethics in Modern Society01:48PM / Tuesday, April 28, 2009
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. - Renee Fox, the Annenberg Professor Emeritus of the Social Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania, will deliver a lecture titled "Bioethics as a Sociological Phenomenon" on Tuesday, April 28, at 7:30 p.m. The lecture will be held in Weston Hall, room 10, on the Williams College campus.
The event is free and open to the public.
Fox will discuss the meaning, origins, and repercussions of bioethics in American politics and media. She will discuss the problems of thinking culturally and socially within the framework of bioethics, and address the field's significance and limitations.
Fox is the author of numerous articles and eight books, including most recently "Observing Bioethics." The book has been described as "the first systematic and sociological analysis of the development and enterprise of bioethics," full of "important and sometimes controversial insights."
She is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and an Honorary Member of Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. She has received numerous teaching awards, holds nine honorary degrees, and in 1995, was named Chevalier of the Order of Leopold II by the Belgian Government.
Before joining the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania in 1969, she was a member of the Columbia University Bureau of Applied Social Research, and taught at Barnard College and Harvard University.
Fox did her undergraduate work at Smith College and received her Ph.D. in sociology from Harvard. |
