The first of the five sessions that make up the workshops will be conducted by Diego José García Capilla who will discuss the theme 'Bioethics and anti-vaccines'
Diego José García Capilla (Murcia, 1960) has been a doctor since 1983 and completed a Philosophy degree, earning the Extraordinary End-of-Career Award.
His doctoral thesis, presented in 2005, is dedicated to the birth of bioethics.
He holds a master's degree in bioethics from the Complutense University of Madrid and an associate professor of bioethics at the Faculty of Philosophy of Murcia, teaching this discipline in this Faculty as well as in the Faculty of Medicine and the School of Nursing.
From the perspective of bioethics, it analyzes various topics, such as, for example, in his article on Opinion (La Opinión de Murcia on 10
October 2018), Bioethical perspective of surrogacy.
In his book 'The Birth of Bioethics' (Biblioteca Nueva, 2007) the author performs a genealogy of the discipline, developing the main historical phenomena involved in the birth of bioethics: the crisis of medical paternalism, autonomy in the management of the values ​​of life, medicine in the welfare state and, finally, the concepts of risk and responsibility before the new medical technologies and biotechnologies.
In each chapter appears a constellation of concepts, whose final result is the birth of bioethics, in a double and inseparable slope.
Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the work, the recipients are professionals in healthcare (doctors, nurses, etc.) and in philosophy, as well as people who actively participate in bioethics committees.
The interest for one and the other lies in trying to answer the questions posed by the revolution that occurred in the field of biomedicine.
