Jones Rounds is a two-part interactive educational program designed to address complex issues at the intersection of Reproductive Medicine, Law & Ethics. It offers traditional Grand Rounds lectures on Assisted Reproductive Technology (“ART”) Law and Ethics and content-expert led, selected Interactive Case Rounds focused on specific ART topics.
Sponsored by grants from the Howard & Georgeanna Jones Foundation, Ferring Pharmacueticals, EMD Serono, developed by PI Susan L. Crockin, JD in conjunction with Georgetown University’s Kennedy Institute of Ethics and Georgetown Law Center’s O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law, this highly interactive program sustains the legacy of Howard W. Jones, Jr., MD, a medical pioneer, ethical visionary, and life-long proponent of learning through dialogue.
Jones Rounds offers unique learning opportunities for REI Fellows, Faculty, and other ART Professionals to explore current inter-disciplinary issues and challenges with legal, ethics, and psychosocial experts and faculty leaders.
Interactive, inter-disciplinary, current topics explored
Designed to meet multiple ACGME requirements.
Grand Rounds can be delivered independently of the live 90 minute Didactics Modules. Modules can be scheduled and stacked to meet program needs.
Content experts in law, ethics and psychology provide complete Didactics Modules exploring ART’s legal, ethical and psychosocial issues. Programs need no specific expertise; program leaders have the opportunity to participate at multiple levels.
Program directors have the opportunity to participate in multiple ways (including as break-out facilitators, commentators, role-play or discussants).
Through virtual learning platforms, multiple programs can participate together in a Didactics Module and learn from one another independent of physical locations.
The highly interactive Jones Rounds program honors the legacy of Howard W. Jones, Jr., MD, a medical pioneer and an ethical visionary, who was a life-long proponent of learning through dialogue.
