Trent Center faculty and faculty associates engage in bioethics research spanning a wide spectrum of issues, from health care policy and genome ethics to women and reproductive health; from global health, justice and access to health care resources to economics of clinical research; from use of technology, medical decision making, and behavioral economics to access to experimental therapy, conflict of interest and protection of human subjects.
