Social and Behavioral Genomics

This month, Kirk and Amelia sit down with Daphne Martschenko, who is an interdisciplinary, mixed-methods researcher working at the intersections of bioethics, the social sciences, and the Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications of genetics. Find out about adversarial collaboration and more.

Dr. Martschenko’s scholarship investigates the ethical and social implications of genetics/genomics and identifies policy recommendations to address these issues. In her work she advocates for and facilitates research efforts that promote interdisciplinary collaborations and social and ethical responsibility in genetics broadly and social and behavioral genomics specifically.
