When Life and Death Raise New Questions
How do we make ethically responsible decisions regarding birth, illness, dying, and the use of modern technologies? The online lecture Life and Death: Ethically Deciding Great Questions invites a focused engagement with the big questions of life on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.
Ethics Between Medicine, Society, and Personal Responsibility
Central themes include subjects that many people will encounter at some point: artificial insemination, prenatal diagnostics, euthanasia, assisted suicide, and the role of palliative care. Current research and the use of artificial intelligence also open new perspectives and demand careful ethical classification.
The event combines scientific expertise with an understandable conversational atmosphere. Leading the evening is Prof. Dr. Alena Buyx. The physician, philosopher, and sociologist is a professor of Ethics in Medicine and Health Technologies at the Technical University of Munich and was chair of the German Ethics Council for several years.
