2026 Conference on Medicine and Religion

Navigating Religious and Spiritual Trigger Topics in Clinical Practice
Rev. Karen Bona, Health Care Program Manager, and Emily Dunn, Senior Health Care Associate, Tanenbaum Center for Interreligious Understanding 

How can health care professionals and students respectfully respond when religious priorities affect patients' healthcare decisions? This highly interactive workshop outlines Tanenbaum’s Trigger Topics, areas in healthcare in which religion and spirituality often emerge. The workshop will offer a wide variety of religiously diverse case study examples for discussion-based learning and participants of all specialties will leave with practical skills they can use to improve patient care.
