CSEP Manchester

We have had a fantastic year so far with our awesome campus PGT students! If you are considering a Medical Law and Bioethics Masters (LLM, MA or MSc for intercalating Medics), we have a long history of excellence here at Manchester! @uomsoss @law_uom manchester.ac.uk/study/masters/…

Great to see this very timely article on assisted dying by CSEP's @FargSuzanne as the HL considers the @kimleadbeater Bill @law_uom @uomsoss Will NHS resource constraints undermine the proposed legal safeguards for assisted dying? | Journal of Medical Ethics

Congratulations to the new JME Editors! @uomsoss @law_uom

@alex_mullock had an event yesterday to discuss the @kimleadbeater bill and the arrangements for an AD service. Huge thanks to @uomsoss @NancyPreston16 @SuzanneOst3737 @israblack @IainBrassington Molly G @Nuffbioethics @aneezesmail Caroline Redhead and Soren Holm! @UoMPolicy

@iki_gaix Currently the distance learning LLM does not require a law degree, but the campus FT course does, BUT we are changing this so that both LLMs do not require a law degree. Until the change is confirmed, if you apply to the campus MA, we can switch you to the LLM after acceptance.

@BioethicsUoM please can you confirm whether the entry requirements for the LLM healthcare ethics & law requires a law degree? I’ve checked the website and it appears to have contradicting information. Thank you!

CSEP's @alex_mullock is running a Policy event on assisted dying on 10 June, with @NancyPreston16 @SuzanneOst3737 and others if you are interested: Assisted Dying Symposium: What Model of AD Service Ought to be Created? Tickets, Tue, Jun 10, 2025 at 10:00 AM | Eventbrite

Today the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill will be brought before MPs for amendments. Our analysis of the international approaches to assisted dying brings important context to the debate. Read the analysis here: buff.ly/KeuSXxp
