CNS-ASU's Erik Fisher to Address President Obama's Bioethics Commission

How does including an ethicist on a research team affect scientific research, and does it generate productive collaboration among scholars? Erik Fisher, associate director for integration with the Center for Nanotechnology in Society and principal investigator for the SocioTechnical Integration Research (STIR) project, will address these and other responsible innovation questions when he testifies before the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues in Washington on Tuesday, February 11, 9:15 - 10:45 a.m. (EST). He will be a panel participant in the "Implementation Strategies for Ethics Integration" session, which will include a roundtable discussion. For links to view an agenda and a live webcast of the meeting, visit bioethics.gov/meetings
