The American Society of Law, Medicine and Ethics is proud to co-sponsor the First Annual Health Law Student Conference. This year’s theme will be “Taking the Health Law Career Path: Student Conference and Job Fair.” Alongside the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, the ASLME presents this conference as a networking and “outreach program” for those students interested in health law.
