Learning includes gaining any new facts, data, or experiences, whereas curiosity encompasses a specific aspect of learning manifested by a desire to explore differences, similarities, barriers, or conflicts.In my study of the emotions of medical trainees (Kasman, Fryer Edwards, and Braddock 2003), the third-year resident most likely to belittle nurses revealed she had been the victim of condescension her first night on call as an intern, when the nurses told her how incompetent she was and how they hate July when all the ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169065">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/3/image/coversmall Socialization in Medical Training: Exploring "Lifelong Curiosity" and a "Community of Support" 2004-06-11 text/html en-US Socialization in Medical Training: Exploring "Lifelong Curiosity" and a "Community of Support" 2004-06-11 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 14768 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 2004-06-11 https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169054 <p></p> Much material on this topic can be found at http://www.acgme.org.

(Hereafter, I will refer to these advisory groups as the Clinton Commission and the Bush Council, respectively.) Other scientific uses of the term &#x22;cloning,&#x22; such as &#x22;cloning genes&#x22; or &#x22;cloning cells,&#x22; are not morally problematic.&#x22;Cloning to produce children,&#x22; the terminology used by the Bush Council, is more precise than &#x22;reproductive cloning,&#x22; the terminology used by the Clinton Commission. Because cloning for research or therapy also involves the (re)production of embryos that have a potential for being born&#x2014;and some people view embryos and fetuses as children&#x2014;it may also be described as ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169065">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/3/image/coversmall Self-Preservation: An Argument for Therapeutic Cloning, and a Strategy for Fostering Respect for Moral Integrity 2004-06-11 text/html en-US Self-Preservation: An Argument for Therapeutic Cloning, and a Strategy for Fostering Respect for Moral Integrity 2004-06-11 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 46148 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 2004-06-11 https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169058 <p></p> The Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs of the American Medical Association (AMA) recently published the 2002-2003 edition of The Code of Medical Ethics. This annotated version is published on a biennial basis and compiles the ethical position of the AMA on more than 175 specific issues, ranging from social-policy issues such as capital punishment, HIV testing, and multiplex genetic testing over interprofessional and hospital relations to opinions on practice matters (e.g., gifts to physicians or managed care). The use of codes and guidelines to promote medical ethics is part of a long history that dates back to the Hippocratic tradition and its Oath of Hippocrates (probably fifth century B.C.).

In the context of the President&#39;s Council on Bioethics &#x22;Public&#x22; Discussions, I do laud neoconservative William Kristol&#39;s (Chairman, The Bioethics Project) call for more &#x22;serious public [political] debate . . . beyond specialists and beyond experts . . . about [a] whole range of questions in the field of bioethics . . . shaping our ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169065">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/3/image/coversmall Community-Based Participatory Research in United States Bioethics: Steps Toward More Democratic Theory and Policy 2004-06-11 text/html en-US Community-Based Participatory Research in United States Bioethics: Steps Toward More Democratic Theory and Policy 2004-06-11 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 11138 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 2004-06-11 https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169060 <p></p> In Creating Mental Illness, medical sociologist Allan Horwitz proposes a definition of mental illness, which he argues is close to the official definition used by the American Psychiatric Association in recent editions of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). The definition of mental illness that Horwitz defends depends essentially on the concept of a harmful internal dysfunction, which he explicitly takes from Wakefield&#39;s well-known approach (1992). Horwitz argues that the adequacy of such a disputed definition has to be judged by its usefulness and that a central task of this concept is to distinguish between mental disorders and normal reactions to social stressors. However, he claims ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169065">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/3/image/coversmall Creating Mental Illness (review) 2004-06-11 text/html en-US Creating Mental Illness (review) 2004-06-11 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 13016 2026-05-11T00:00:00-05:00 2004-06-11 https://muse.jhu.edu/article/169065 <p></p> See the ACGME/ABMS Outcome Project implementation showcase, Recognize Success Via imPlementation (RSVP), at http://www.acgme.org/outcome/implement/rsvp.asp.
