Rabbi Shmuly Altein of Chabad-Lubavitch will conduct the six course sessions at the Chabad Torah Centre for six Tuesdays evenings or Wednesday mornings, starting the week of October 24.
This 6-week course from the Chabad Jewish Learning Institute will explore what the Torah and Talmud have to say about difficult medical decisions and compare secular and Jewish approaches as a means of developing understanding.
What's right? What's wrong? When should we turn to G-d? When do we edge too close to playing G-d? Case histories shed light in a remarkable class experience.
The course will also be available for CME and CLE credit (students who are pursuing continuing education credit may have to fulfill additional requirements).
