The James F. Drane Bioethics Institute

 

The Bioethics Institute at Edinboro University is designed to provide a place for students and scholars from Latin America to conduct research in bioethics which will contribute to the development of a Latin American Bioethics, and then to interdisciplinary dialogue with persons from other perspectives.

Russell B. Roth, former president of the American Medical Association, worked with James F. Drane on bioethics problems in the early days of the discipline. Persons accepted for a stay at the Bioethics Institute will be helped financially from an endowment created by Dr. Roth and others. Scholars and students who are accepted will have access to university library material as well as the papers, books, and journals of Dr. Drane.
