2015 Bioethics/Medical Ethics Master's Program Final Thesis 

For my thesis project for my Master's in Bioethics, I studied the intersection of religion, medicine and ethics. Specifically I wanted to understand "what to do" in health care communications when a family in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) says "We are praying for/waiting on a Miracle" in the face of limited and potentially end of life outcomes. These findings were presented at the 2015 Conference on Medicine and Religion in Boston, Ma. 
​Hall, M. S. (2015). Decoding miracles: The ethics of engaging religious and spiritual perspectives in the neonatal intensive care unit (Order No. 1593050).
