Centers for Military Medicine Ethics

The Centers for Military Medicine Ethics (CMME) focus on the ethical challenges faced by military healthcare providers and researchers. They promote understanding and dialogue about the moral principles involved in caring for service members, veterans, and their families, especially in complex situations like combat or trauma care. By fostering discussions on issues such as informed consent, the impact of war on health, and the balance between military needs and patient welfare, CMME helps ensure that medical practices within the military uphold ethical standards and support the well-being of those who serve.
