People & Perspectives: Dr. Christy Rentmeester - Teacher Becomes Philosopher

Dr. Rentmeester describes navigating the grey areas of medical ethics and the importance of considering the viewpoints of all stakeholders, being willing to ask questions and the value of an environment that welcomes a dissenting vote. (December, 2014)

People & Perspectives (P&P) is a digital oral history library supported by Public Responsibility in Medicine & Research (PRIM&R).  

P&P features stories of those working in research ethics, many of whom were involved in the early years of the field. Those featured include IRB and IACUC professionals, research staff, committee members, institutional officials, researchers, subjects, advocates, regulators, industry representatives, ethicists, and others who consider themselves part of the human subjects and animal care and use enterprise.
