Call for Abstracts: Wiet Life Science Law Scholars Conference – Chicago, IL

Loyola University Chicago

Loyola University Chicago‘s nationally acclaimed Beazley Institute for Health Law and Policy invites original research submissions for its inaugural Wiet Life Science Law Scholars Conference on Friday, October 13, 2017.

The conference is designed to provide a new intellectual venue for life science professors, scholars, and practitioners to convene and discuss current research and scholarship. The phrase “life science law” aims to capture research and disciplines spanning food and drug law, health law, intellectual property (IP), biotechnology, environmental, administrative, antitrust, and other realms that involve the life sciences in some meaningful respect. Our goal is to foster recognition of life science law as a cohesive, dynamic, area of legal study and strengthen connections among national life science law scholars.

Deadline: The deadline for 750-1,000 word abstracts, including author contact information is June 15. Submit via email to health-law[@]luc.edu with subject line Wiet Life Science Law.

Authors will be notified of speaker selections by email on or before July 15.
