Patricia Marshall is Associate Professor of Bioethics. Dr.
Marshall received her Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University
of Kentucky in 1983. Her research interests and publications
have focused on multi-culturalism and the application of bioethics
practices, international research ethics and informed consent,
HIV prevention among injection drug users, procurement practices
for organ transplantation in India, and clinical ethics consultations.
In 1999 she co-edited a volume on Integrating Cultural, Observational,
and Epidemiological Approaches in the Prevention of Drug Abuse
and HIV/AIDS. She is now working a book that explores the relationship
between anthropology and bioethics. She is also preparing a
monograph for the World Health Organization that addresses ethical
challenges related to biomedical and behavioral research in
resource-poor settings.
Dr. Marshall's current research activities include a cross-cultural
study of informed consent to genetic epidemiological research
on hypertension and breast cancer in the U.S. and Nigeria. She
is a member of the investigative team for the development of
a haplotype map for the human genome at project sites in Nigeria,
Kenya, and South Africa. Dr. Marshall is working with colleagues
on a multi-site study of effective strategies for hepatitis
B vaccinations for injection drug users. She is a co-investigator
on a multi-site study of challenges associated with informed
consent in tissue donation in the U.S. She is now developing
a study of informed consent practices in HIV clinical trials
being implemented in Uganda.
Dr. Marshall is a past member of the executive boards of the
American Society for Bioethics and Humanities, the Society for
Medical Anthropology, and the Society for Bioethics Consultation.
Dr. Marshall also served on the Advisory Board for the Fogarty
International Center at the National Institutes of Health. In
1999, Dr. Marshall served as a consultant to the President's
National Bioethics Advisory Commission on their project examining
ethical issues in international health research. In 2000, she
was a consultant to the World Health Organization's Council
for International Organization of Medical Societies on their
revision of ethical guidelines for international research. Dr.
Marshall was appointed to the National Academy of Sciences study
panel on IRBs, Surveys and Social Science Research in 2001.
In 1991, Dr. Marshall was awarded a three year Kellogg Foundation
National Fellowship for creative leadership. |
