Center for Innovative Collaboration in Medicine and Law
The Center for Innovative Collaboration in Medicine and Law is a joint effort of the Florida State University College of Medicine and FSU College of Law
. The mission is to identify and facilitate (through education, the conduct and dissemination of scholarship, and performance of service activities) opportunities for members of the medical and legal professions, working together and with others, to foster improvements in the quality of life enjoyed by individuals and to promote public health in Florida, the United States, and globally.
The Center explores educational, research, and advocacy avenues for collaboration and cooperation between the medical and legal professions on behalf of the well-being of consumers who are both physicians' patients and attorneys' clients. The Center is led by Gregory K. Todd, JD, MD, FACP, who is an associate professor in the College of Medicine Department of Clinical Sciences and a Courtesy Professor of Law at the the FSU College of Law.
The Center is also the editor and sponsor of the Medical-Legal Studies SSRN electronic journal , which contains many more publications related to the field.
