Faculty in the News: “You really can’t do research responsibly without paying very close attention to how you’re designing the research, how you're treating the human beings who are generous enough to participate in the research. Even if it’s research with animals — are you treating them responsibly?” - Prof. Susan Wolf; MPR News logo
Professor Susan Wolf, Regents Professor and McKnight Presidential Professor of Law, Medicine & Public Policy, was interviewed by @mprnews.org about scientific research including how funding cuts and AI are reshaping scientific research.
