Distinguished scholars, Dr. Sabine Hildebrandt and Dr. Howard Israel, will lead the discussion, examining the intersection of medical education, ethics, and historical accountability. The lecture will focus on the infamous Pernkopf Atlas, known for its detailed anatomical illustrations derived from victims of the Nazi regime. Participants will grapple with the ethical dilemmas surrounding the use of the Atlas in medical education, emphasizing the moral responsibilities of medical professionals to confront historical legacies with critical reflection and conscientious decision-making.
