Making Super Soldiers: Command Authority and the Implications of “Getting to Yes”
Full text linkThe capability and will to enhance soldiers’ minds and bodies for warfare have existed throughout the centuries and across nations, from Ancient Greek hoplites partaking in wine before battle to calm nerves, to American servicemembers consuming amphetamines to remain awake during long-range reconnaissance missions in the Vietnam War. With advancements in biomedical technology, certain types of enhancements entail modifications with varying degrees of permanence to enhance battlefield performance. This Article explores the historical context and contemporary developments of biomedical enhancements, with a focus on the longstanding deference to military command authority regarding issues of individual autonomy. By examining the impacts of biomedical enhancements on military personnel and the adequacy of the current tort framework in addressing the potentially negative effects of such enhancements, this Article argues for the adoption of reversible or temporary enhancements to reconcile military necessity with medical ethics, proposing a balanced approach to safeguarding individual autonomy and communal welfare
The Geneva Conventions at 75: An Argument that New Legal Authority Is Needed to Fill Critical Gaps
Full text linkFor seventy-five years, the Geneva Conventions have served as the gold standard of treatment for military forces that take part in hostilities. However, modern developments on the battlefield, including the rise of non-state actors in today’s conflicts, have exposed gaps in the Geneva Conventions that require new legal authority. States should pursue avenues to fill these gaps with binding new legal authority, as well as continue the development of customary international law, and soft-law projects. (Abstract from author.

Tenth Trade Law Fall Update: “Back to the Future: Trade and Customs Law and Enforcement in 2025
No full textAcademic Partners: American Society of International Law, Customs and International Trade Bar Association, and Greater Cleveland International Lawyers Group.
For exporters, importers, lawyers, and compliance professionals, 2025 has been a year of nonstop and disruptive change in tariffs, policies, and practices, with a constant stream of announcements, events, and negotiations. On Friday, November 7, the Tenth Annual CWRU School of Law Trade Law Fall Update will cover key need-to-know issues for the trade and customs community in the unique environment of 2025.
Professor Juscelino Colares and the Organizing Committee welcome you to this program, to be held online via Zoom free of charge.
The discussion begins with our first panel on coping with tariffs and trade restrictions based on the content of an imported product or how it was manufactured. How do companies and counsel look back in supply chains – for instance, to report to Customs on origin or value of content in tariffed “derivative” products?
We then shift to the timely topic of refunds – how importers can get repaid after duties change, or in the wake of litigation, and what steps to take to preserve rights to refunds.
The hot topics of the day in trade and Customs law will be the focus of our final morning panel – including the Supreme Court’s review of IEEPA tariffs, tariff implementation and enforcement, and other issues.
The Hon. Leo M. Gordon, U.S. Court of International Trade, will introduce public opinion expert Bruce Stokes, our keynoter, who will talk about where the American public is on the trade and tariff issues of today, and what it means for the future of trade policy and American engagement with the world.
Professor Colares will conclude the Update with brief closing comments
Taking Down Theranos
No full textJoin us for an exclusive talk with George Scavdis, the lead FDA investigator and CWRU School of Law alumnus who prosecuted Theranos.
In 2018, the world watched as a $9 billion company, once hailed as a medical breakthrough, crumbled into one of the biggest corporate fraud cases in history. What really happened behind the closed doors of Theranos? And how did a company with such a powerful vision go so wrong?
George Scavdis, a former special agent for the FDA\u27s Office of Criminal Investigations, was the man on the inside. He\u27ll take us beyond the headlines and into the heart of the investigation, sharing firsthand insights into the compliance failures that led to the downfall of Elizabeth Holmes and Sunny Balwani.
Drawing on his 22-year career prosecuting complex fraud cases—from medical device companies to healthcare schemes—Scavdis will reveal how organizations often stumble not from malicious intent, but from a lack of oversight, poor communication and gaps in regulatory understanding.
This isn\u27t just a story about a sensational crime; it\u27s a powerful lesson in prevention. Scavdis will share how his experience with real cases and real consequences led him to a new mission: helping companies build stronger compliance systems before they find themselves in the crosshairs of federal law enforcement.
Don\u27t miss this rare opportunity to learn from the investigator who witnessed it all
At What Cost: Medicare’s Cost- Saving Measures in Skilled Nursing Facilities and Their Impact on Vulnerable Populations
Full text linkAs the highest spender of health care in the world, the United States continues to look for ways to reduce its spending. As the main health insurance provider for the elderly and disabled, Medicare shares this mission. Unfortunately, some of Medicare’s cost-saving initiatives in one of its most critical care settings, Skilled Nursing Facilities, cause disproportionately negative impacts on vulnerable populations. This Note analyzes three of Medicare’s cost-saving measures in Skilled Nursing Facilities, namely value-based purchasing programs, the twenty-day limit on full coverage, and the practical matter provision. This Note highlights how these measures have a disparate negative effect on the most vulnerable populations, and then recommends solutions to mitigate these outcomes while still allowing overall cost savings for patients and the government
