With the participation of a local Oncologist, we will investigate the use of an online tool to help think about, and then create, a list of questions to help clarify your options and outcomes in cancer treatment.

In this two-part session, we will explore an overview of communication tools available through the internet to give people with serious illnesses the ability to ask better questions of their physicians, and thus make truly informed treatment decisions in line with their own values and choices. A related program with a local oncologist will allow further explorations of the tools.

Two controversial topics on medical breakthroughs will be examined in this course. 1) Genetic Fortune Telling From DNA Tests. Most common diseases and many behaviors and traits, including intelligence, are a result of many genes acting in concert. Using data from ongoing genetic studies, scientists can create an individual’s profile that allows predictions of many aspects of a person’s future life. 2) Artificial Embryos. Scientists have grown realistic-looking mouse embryos using only stem cells -- No egg and no sperm. Just cells plucked from another embryo. Experts said the results suggest that human embryos may be created in a similar way in the future - a step that would allow scientists to use artificial embryos rather than real ones to research the very earliest stages of human development. We will explore the implications of such research.

In this lecture, Dr. Amir will outline some easy methods to prevent the most common causes of tooth loss: dental caries (cavities) and periodontal disease (gum disease). We will also discuss conservative methods of treatment and give advice on how to choose a good dentist.
