Marsha Michie, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the Institute for Health & Aging at the University of California, San Francisco. Her research examines ethical and social aspects of biomedicine, particularly new genetic technologies and their users. Her current NIH-funded research explores the progress of prenatal cell-free DNA (cfDNA) screening and the lessons it teaches us about bringing new genetic technologies into people’s everyday lives in ways that are socially appropriate, equitable, and ethical.
