Editor's Note

Readers of the MHR will note we’ve made changes to our printed format. In order to bring our readers a broader discussion of topics in medical humanities and bioethics, we’re trying a new strategy: printed copies of the MHR will provide an overview and introduction to numerous articles, with full texts available at our new website at http://bioethics.msu.edu/newsletter.html.

We are also introducing a series of semi-regular columns on various themes in bioethics and the medical humanities. The first of these highlights work of MSU students in these disciplines. Finally, the MHR continues to welcome your feedback: your responses to what you've read here, suggestions for future topics, as well as your own contributions!
