近日，接到国际知名期刊《The Journal of Medicine & Philosophy》主编H.Tristram Engelhardt教授的聘用函，学院党委副书记王明旭教授被续聘为该期刊编委，聘期为三年。

《The Journal of Medicine & Philosophy》explores the shared themes and concerns of philosophy and the medical sciences. Central issues in medical research and practice have important philosophical dimensions, for, in treating disease and promoting health, medicine involves presuppositions about human goals and values. Conversely, the concerns of philosophy often significantly relate to those of medicine, as philosophers seek to understand the nature of medical knowledge and the human condition in the modern world. In addition, recent developments in medical technology and treatment create moral problems that raise important philosophical questions. The Journal of Medicine and Philosophy aims to provide an ongoing forum for the discussion of such themes and issues.
