Glenn Edwards McGee is a professor of management at the University of New Haven, who focuses on health policy. He has been noted for his work on reproductive technology and genetics and for advancing a theory of pragmatic bioethics, as well as the role of ethicists in society and in local and state settings in particular. ==Life and career== McGee was raised by adoptive parents on the faculty of Baylor University in Waco, Texas. He earned a master's degree and Ph.D. in philosophy from Vanderbilt University and completed a post-doctoral fellowship in the Human Genome Project.〔 From 1995 to 2005, McGee was an assistant professor and associate director for education at the University of Pennsylvania Center for Bioethics, where he held joint appointments in philosophy, history and sociology of science, cellular and molecular engineering, and was a Fellow of the Leonard Davis Institute for Health Economics. In 1999, he founded and became the first editor-in-chief of ''The American Journal of Bioethics'', the highest impact journal in the categories of "History & Philosophy of Science", "Ethics", "Social Issues" and "Biomedical Social Issues" (according to the ''Journal Citation Reports''). In 2005, he moved to Union University in Albany, New York, as the John Balint, M.D. Professor of Medical Ethics and became director of the Alden March Bioethics Institute at Albany Medical College which had been founded in 1993 as the Center for Medical Ethics Education and Research by Balint. Three years later, after a legal case arising from the University's attempts to demote him as director and remove his endowed chair, he left the university. He was appointed to the John B. Francis chair in bioethics at the Center for Practical Bioethics in Kansas City, succeeding John D. Lantos, inaugural holder of the chair. McGee is a member of the Honorary International Editorial Advisory Board of the Mens Sana Monographs. On February 13, 2012, it was announced that McGee had accepted a position as President of the Ethics Research Division at Celltex Therapeutics Corporation, a Houston, Texas, stem cell bank. He came under fire for this move over a perception that there might be a conflict of interest between his editorial duties and his new position,〔.〕 and he subsequently resigned from Celltex on February 28, 2012. He joined the faculty of the Department of Management in the University of New Haven business school in 2014, where he teaches but public health and health law. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glenn McGee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
