Join us for an illuminating seminar in medical ethics, where we delve into the complex challenges faced by healthcare professionals. Prepare to engage in a thought-provoking discussion exploring the fundamental principles of medical ethics and discuss real-world dilemmas in the age of cutting-edge medicine.

His career spanned over France and the United States. In addition to a Masters in Theology where he has formally studied Medical Ethics, Karim brings the practical experience gained through sitting on committees examining difficult decision making healthcare professionals face in their daily practice of medicine.
