Presented By: Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine (CBSSM)
CBSSM Seminar: September 11th with Beth Tarini, MD, MS

Announcing the first seminar of our CBSSM Fall 2013 seminar series:
Optimizing Physician-Parent Communication: How to Avoid Making Healthy Children Sick
Beth Tarini, MD, MS
Summary: The goal of healthcare providers should be to make the sick healthy and not the healthy sick. Sometimes healthcare providers inadvertently do the latter. To illustrate this phenomenon, Dr. Tarini will present results from a recent study about how physician's use of labels can affect parents' healthcare beliefs about their children.
Dr. Tarini is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Communicable Diseases.
