DESCRIPTION:Medical students often learn to perform pelvic exams on anesthe
 tized patients before gynecological surgeries. In some cases\, explicit co
 nsent is not sought. Why is this happening? How should we respond?\n\nRece
 nt years have seen increased attention on the topic of consent for intimat
 e exams performed by medical trainees on patients under anesthesia\, both 
 in the media and in peer-reviewed literature. In the United States\, legis
 lation requiring consent for pelvic and other intimate exams has been sign
 ed into law in over 20 states. Canadians have been largely silent on this 
 issue since a brief discussion took place over a decade ago. This event wi
 ll initiate a national conversation about the topic of consent and intimat
 e educational exams. A screening of the documentary ‘At Your Cervix’\, whi
 ch examines the history of this topic in the US\, will be followed by a br
 ief presentation of recent data collected from medical students across Can
 ada.\n\nThis event will include a screening of the documentary film ‘At Yo
 ur Cervix’ (trailer here) and a panel discussion.\n\nPanelists:\n\nA’magin
