ABOUT MLST

The Society was founded 70 years ago by a group of distinguished doctors and lawyers. Its purpose was to improve the dialogue between these two great professions and to address, in a real way, difficult public issues that touch each, including informed consent, catastrophic impairment, the Human Tissues Act, and the role and approach to doctors as witnesses.

We continue to explore, debate and discuss these topics in a robust way - join the Society to see how you can contribute and benefit.
