Bioethics Grad Student Andreia Martinho Interns with the AMA!

Congratulations to Andreia Martinho who has been selected to participate in the American Medical Association (AMA) Ethics Group internship program in summer 2012 at their headquarters in Chicago, IL.

Selected interns will provide support for ongoing projects and initiatives in the Ethics Group. Interns are asked to conduct research on a wide variety of medical ethics issues which contribute to the formation of AMA ethics policy and other research projects related to the Code of Medical Ethics. Work may include researching legal, medical, or ethics literature and other resources; organizing and summarizing research material; and handling telephone inquiries or written correspondence. Interns also have the opportunity to attend faculty seminars and interact with a diverse range of professionals working in bioethics at a professional medical association. Past interns have obtained positions in private health law firms, health care consulting firms, and health related graduate programs.
