The Honors Office has recently received news of a call for student submissions to the Ivy Journal of bioethics, a publication of Cornell University. Please read on to see if your work qualifies . . .

A Call for Submissions!

The Ivy Journal of Ethics is an annual journal of applied bioethics
published by the Bioethics Society of Cornell. Research and discussion
based articles are published primarily from undergraduate students at
schools throughout the US, Canada, and Europe. In the past, we have also
published submissions from notable faculty members, such as Nobel Laureate
Roald Hoffmann. It has been well received by noted Bioethicists such as
Dr. Atul Gawande of Brigham and Women’s Hosptial/ Harvard Medical School.
For past editions of the Ivy Journal of Ethics, please visit our website:
www.rso.cornell.edu/bsc.

We are currently accepting submissions for the Spring 2009 edition of the
Journal. Past volumes have contained an array of issues, from
xenotransplantation, stem cell research, abortion, and in vitro
fertilization to matters concerning doping in athletics and bioterrorism.
In our past issue, we focused on the maternal and fetal rights, combating
HIV/AIDS in developing nations, and corruption and deforestation. For the
Spring 2009 edition, we are particularly interested in submissions
centered around genomics, personalized medicine, and gene therapy as well
as its ethical implications of this technology on medicine, research, and
society. In addition, we would be delighted to receive submissions on any
other topics related to bioethics for inclusion in our next journal.

Submissions should be emailed to ethics@cornell.edu by February 1, 2009.
Please do not submit manuscripts that have been or will be up for
publication in any other journal.

Please feel free to contact me at nv47@cornell.edu with any questions.

Additionally, inquiries may be routed to Dr. Lisa DeFrank-Cole at 304.293.2100 or at Lisa.DeFrank-Cole@mail.wvu.edu
