Message from the Program Committee

Welcome to your (home) office, living room couch, breakfast

table, or mobile device for the 22nd Annual Conference

of the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities!

Amid the din of the ever-present news cycle; co-working,

caregiving, or parenting demands; and fretting about the

general state of all things, ASBH is meeting online for the

first time. We are aware that 2020 is the year of uncertainty.

The year of the absurd! The year of challenges. And in

response to those challenges, we see it as the year of

opportunity: to work, to raise our voices, to focus on what

matters.

Understanding the incredible demands on our members in

this moment, the ASBH Program Committee and executive

leadership designed a conference that draws on the

strengths of virtual meetings:

?

The conference spans from Monday to Sunday, with less

programming per day.

?

Programming occurs mostly during workday hours

across all time zones.

?

Paper and flash sessions are prerecorded for viewing

at your convenience starting on Monday, with live Q&A

sessions scheduled Thursday through Sunday.

?

All other sessions will be live beginning on Wednesday,

and they will be recorded for later viewing.

?

Prerecorded and recorded (live) sessions will be

viewable for 30 days after the conference concludes

(through November 17, 2020).

As with so many other aspects of life at the moment, we

are disappointed that going virtual means we lose in-person

social interaction. We will miss seeing our colleagues,

friends, and frenemies in Baltimore. So we invite you to

get creative. Do some e-mingling during the Wednesday

night reception. Use your social media skills with the

tag #ASBH20 on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn under

@AmerSocBioHum. If you aren¡¯t ¡°social¡± in that way, go old

school. Set up a conference call, send some e-mails, post on

a blog, or write a letter to send in the post.

Planning for the annual conference always takes an

enormous amount of work. The Program Committee

thanks our reviewers and category leaders¡ªwithout their

hundreds of volunteer hours, we could not select highquality presentations for you. We also thank Virginia Bartlett

for serving as an ad hoc Program Committee member

this year when we needed a bit more help than expected.

ASBH President Ana Iltis and President-Elect Kayhan Parsi

provided crucial support, both generally and especially

as we thought through the implications of COVID-19 on

our conference planning. And Mary Beth Benner and Talia

Lionetti supported all the planning and logistical aspects of

the conference, which were considerable. Without them we

could not have accomplished the modest goals we had for

improving our October 2019 conference, and we certainly

could not have transformed the meeting to an online

conference on the fly.

We hope you find that the 2020 ASBH conference program

meets your needs and stimulates your thinking. More than

anything, though, we hope you find that the changes we

have made to adapt to the moment make the programming

accessible and enrich your professional, and perhaps

personal, life. Thank you for attending.

With gratitude,

Thomas Cunningham, PhD, Chair

Virginia L. Bartlett, PhD

Erin Lamb, PhD

Devan Stahl, PhD

Stacey Tovino, JD PhD

A WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT AND ACCESSIBILITY

ASBH aims to provide a welcoming and accessible

environment for all conference attendees and participants.

Comprehensive information on accessibility is available on

the ASBH 2020 Annual Conference web page.

Productive Engagement

ASBH supports an environment of productive engagement,

where the free expression of diverse points of view

occurs in an atmosphere of scholarly exchange and

mutual respect. Conference attendees, participants, and

vendors are expected to observe commonsense norms

for public behavior, personal interaction, and common

courtesy. Abusive, harassing, or threatening behavior is not

acceptable.
