Bioethics

Jacqueline
Master of Bioethics 2009,
PhD candidate 2012

"In my current position as a PhD candidate, I am looking at the Australian consumer’s experience of direct-to-consumer personal genome testing.

"My firm foundation in bioethics has helped me to approach problems from multiple perspectives. The unique nature of bioethics enables me to look at old problems in new ways, which, can sometimes open up a new avenue of thought or even a new course of action.

"My research project - with the knowledge gained in the Master of Bioethics program - has been designed with the potential to inform genetics policy both inside and outside of the clinical setting in Australia."
