Since 1983, Rebecca Dresser has taught medical and law students about legal and ethical issues in end-of-life care, biomedical research, genetics, assisted reproduction, and related topics. Her 2017 book, Silent Partners: Human Subjects and Research Ethics, calls for including experienced study subjects in research deliberations and policy making. Dresser will be discussing what her personal experience as a cancer patient taught her about research ethics.
