The Myra Christopher/Center for Practical Bioethics Collection was donated to LaBudde Special Collections in September 2019 by Myra Christopher herself. The collection is centered on Christopher’s career and activities as an advocate of end-of-life care and palliative medicine among other issues. The majority of the collection is comprised of organizational documents detailing the relationships between the Center for Practical Bioethics, the Midwest Bioethics Center, and their related collaborators and funding sources. Other major sections of the collection include reports, project proposals and plans, and a series of photographs.
