ABOUT THIS SYMPOSIUM

The 26th Annual Thomas A. Pitts Memorial Lectureship in Medical Ethics was scheduled for March 2020, but was cancelled owing to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. This symposium issue consists mostly of papers from that conference. The endowed lectureship, held annually since 1993, is funded by the Medical University of South Carolina Foundation through a bequest from Dr. Pitts, who served on MUSC’s Board of Trustees for 36 years, including 25 years as its chair. The conference is presented by the Medical University of South Carolina, the Institute of Human Values in Health Care, the South Carolina Clinical and Translational Research Institute, the Humanities Office, and the Office of Continuing Medical Education of the MUSC College of Medicine.
