title: The Duke University program for integrating ethics and human values into medical education.
abstract: In its second year of development, this program blends cognitive and affective approaches to integrating ethics and human values into medical education. The core of this effort is the establishment of direct and continuing relationships between the four advisory deans and their medical student advisees through small groups that continue throughout the four years of medical school. Clinical correlation seminars, lecture/discussions, the humanities, clinical clerkships, and electives are components of this integration process. Both basic science and clinical faculty members have observed positive changes in the degree and depth of participation, discussion, and interest, as well as in the general attitudes of the students.
