  • Spring 2008, Volume 5, Number 1
    The Journal of the University of Notre Dame College of Science Spring 2008, Volume 5, Number 1 U N D E R G R A D U A T E A N D GRADUATE RESEARCH LETTER FROM THE DEAN Welcome to the spring 2008 issue of Renaissance, the seventh since the College of Science launched this publication in spring 2004. Renaissance was created to inform those outside of the University, as well as those in the campus community, about the significant developments that are oc- curring in science research and teaching here at Notre Dame. My term as dean is coming to a close at the end of June. I feel privi- leged to have served the students, faculty, and staff of the College of Science in my role as dean over the past six years. The college has made significant strides in undergraduate education, infrastructure and re- search. During this period, the research funding of the college has almost doubled. With the opening of Jordan Hall of Science, the college and University are poised to lead the nation in science education. In this issue, we devote a large section to highlighting undergraduate research. We recently appointed a new coordinator of undergraduate research, Dominic Chaloner, and the University also continues to show strong support for undergraduate research. Currently, student interest in research opportunities outpaces funded positions, but we’re making significant progress to satisfy this demand. I am pleased to say that now over a third of our students are involved in research, in both laboratories and in the field.

    Team Bios: UK, Thailand, Kenya, South Africa Ethox Team – Coordinating Centre, Oxford Prof Maureen Kelley – Principal Investigator & REACH Project Lead a bioethicist working in ethics and women’s and children’s global health at the Ethox Centre, Oxford. A moral philosopher and qualitative researcher by training she has worked for nearly twenty years as a clinical ethics consultant and instructor in pediatrics, adolescent medicine, and obstetrics. Through qualitative empirical research and ethical argument her research identifies and addresses practical ethical challenges that adversely impact the health of women and children who are more susceptible to poor health due to social, economic and political circumstances. She is particularly interested in addressing sociocultural and ethical barriers to treatment for preventable diseases and adverse health outcomes, such as malnutrition, stillbirth, preterm birth, and maternal-neonatal death and morbidity during childbirth. In child health she has focused on barriers to improving access to health care for children living without parents. [email protected] Prof Michael Parker - Investigator and Co-Lead REACH & Director GHBN Director of the Ethox Centre at Oxford and an expert in global health ethics & genetics. Mike leads the Global Health Bioethics Network, the research platform sponsored by the Wellcome Trust that supports the REACH project. Michael’s main research interest is in the day to day ethical aspects of collaborative global health research. He is particularly interested in the practical ethical issues arising in the everyday work of researchers, health professionals, and fieldworkers as they carry out global health research in collaboration with partners in many countries. Together with partners at the five Wellcome Trust Major Overseas Programmes (MOPs) in Kenya, Thailand, Malawi, Viet Nam, and South Africa, Michael has been awarded a Strategic Award to build ethics capacity and carry out ethics research across the MOPs.
