The Center for Bioethics and Culture Network is Host to the Annual Paul Ramsey Award Dinner at the Lakeside Olympic Club in San Francisco

The CBC is calling for nominations for the Paul Ramsey Award in the field of bioethics.

Oakland, CA. (PRWEB) November 6, 2005 -- The Paul Ramsey Award Dinner honors those among us that have and are deeply impacting the bioethics discussion by actively equipping our society to face the challenges of the 21st century, profoundly defending the dignity of humankind, and enthusiastically embracing ethical biotechnology for the human good. The Ramsey Award is given to those who have demonstrated exemplary achievement in the field of bioethics.

Who is Paul Ramsey? Ramsey is regarded by many as one of the most important ethicists of the twentieth century. He was a distinguished writer on bioethics a generation ago, and served as Harrington Spear Pain Professor of Religion, Princeton University. Ramsey shines as an almost lone beacon in the general darkness of academic bioethics, since his commitment to the sanctity and dignity of human life was paramount.

The CBC is currently accepting Nominations for the 2006 Ramsey Award through November 30, 2005. You can download the nomination form from the website. www.thecbc.org
