An internationally recognised scholar, Professor Ainsley Newson’s work has helped shape ethical thinking, policy and practice in genomics and human reproduction. Drawing on her training in science, law and bioethics, Ainsley has spent nearly 30 years examining how genomic and reproductive technologies can be implemented appropriately. Her work, including leadership of major interdisciplinary projects and policy advisory roles, has influenced debates on reproductive genetic carrier screening, prenatal testing and population screening. Ainsley is also a highly-rated bioethics educator, and has a strong track record of mentorship for early-mid career researchers.
