Symposia

Bill of Health often collaborates with our colleagues and affiliates at partner institutions for digital symposia, as part of our mission to host the critical conversations around issues in health law policy, biotechnology, and bioethics. A digital symposium is a collection of blog posts by experts around a certain topic or issue in health law policy, guest edited by invited scholars.

We also regularly use this platform to continue discussions that have their genesis in conferences and events. Bill of Health provides a venue for critical debate, where academic freedom flourishes, and thought leaders share innovative ideas for solutions. We invite you to join us!

If you are interested in hosting a symposium with us, or if you’d like to discuss how to use this platform to continue conversations from your conference or event, please email billofhealth@law.harvard.edu and reference our About page for more information. You can see an FAQ here.
