Most people consider it an advantage to know what is to come. Consider…your finances, your career, your retirement strategy. If college students 30 years ago could have seen the future, there would have been a lot more Computer Science majors! But are you skilled at “future-thinking”? Do you succumb to the common obstacles which separate the true visionaries from everyone else? Would you behave differently if you were given the chance to see your own biological future? 

This dynamic presentation will help you understand that your children, your grandchildren and all future generations will benefit if you choose more wisely now. And so will your patients…your clients! The focus will be on how to think about the future, presenting a variety of biomedical advances and scenarios. 

You will be challenged to weigh their scientific and social benefits against the ethical and moral dilemmas that will result. You will also understand that you can influence how quickly they are accepted, as well as how long they might be delayed. Through this session Dr. Cox will help you learn about your own “Personal Price of Postponement”, and then you will decide if it is a price you are willing to pay.
