C. Academic Profile

1. RESEARCH AND CREATIVE PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY STATEMENT My research and creative professional activities are organized in three overlapping areas of inquiry and practice: 1) Ethics and Values in Health Policy (health policy ethics), 2) Priority Setting in Health Care (resource allocation ethics), and 3) Ethics and Health Institutions (organizational ethics). My overarching program of research seeks to advance knowledge about the role and influence of ethics and values at the level of health institutions and systems, and to build capacity for addressing ethical issues and values-based challenges at this level by translating this knowledge into novel decision-making approaches, tools, and resources. My research and creative professional activities are very significantly informed by my academic leadership role at the University of Toronto Joint Centre for

Page 12: Curriculum Vitae - University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics …jcb.utoronto.ca/people/documents/cv_gibson.pdf · 2015-06-16 · 1 22 April 2014 Curriculum Vitae Dr. Jennifer

12 22 April 2014

Bioethics (JCB) and my practice as a bioethicist. Bioethics, as it is studied, taught, and practiced at the JCB, is an interdisciplinary and applied field of scholarship, where the interplay of theory and practice is a constitutive element. In my empirical research and conceptual scholarship, I draw on a range of disciplinary concepts and methods, including philosophical ethics, political theory, health economics, management science, and health services and policy. Given my scholarly emphasis on both knowledge generation and knowledge translation, my research and creative professional activity are necessarily and very intentionally aligned and integrated. In addition to my original research and knowledge translation through creative professional activity, I have played a highly significant role in building research infrastructure and networks internationally and nationally, including the Global Network of World Health Organization (WHO) Collaborating Centres for Bioethics and the Canadian Centre for Applied Research in Cancer Control. 1. Ethics & Values in Health Policy: In this thematic area, my focus is on ethics and values in health policy at the level of health systems, including the role of public values in policy decisions. My interest in this area has grown over the last ten years through my experience as an ethics expert on several government policy and advisory committees. I am currently leading a Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) funded study examining how values inform health policy decisions, influence health policymaking, and affect health policy implementation in the context of patient care transitions (e.g., transition from hospital to home) across the continuum of care in Ontario. Several recent reports have underscored the fragmented nature of Ontario’s care delivery system and its adverse impact on patients, particularly during transitions between care settings. Although there is considerable interest in studying and improving care transitions in Ontario, our study is unique in applying a health policy ethics lens and also in employing an integrated knowledge translation design through a formal research partnership with the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long Term Care (MOHLTC). Our preliminary findings suggest differences between policy actors in how the problem is framed and how important values, such as patient choice, efficiency, and equity, ought to inform policy and practice decisions. I am principal investigator on another funded project exploring the role and influence of social media in cancer control policy (e.g., drug funding, screening guidelines). As research on social media is in its infancy, this project is innovative for its development of novel research methods. It is also contributing important findings about how social media is being used by different policy actors – e.g., patient groups, industry, members of the public – to mobilize social action with respect to cancer control policies. In a third funded project led by Dr. Stuart Peacock, we are investigating the interplay of evidence and public values in cancer drug funding decisions. These research projects build on my previous scholarly work in health policy as a co-principal author of an ethical framework for pandemic influenza planning that was incorporated into pandemic plans of governments and healthcare organization locally, nationally & internationally (“Stand on Guard for Thee: ethical considerations in preparedness for pandemic influenza”), as co-investigator on a CIHR-funded study investigating public perspectives on ethical issues in pandemic planning (Thompson et al, BMC Medical Ethics 2006; Upshur et al., Health Law Review 2007; Silva et al., BMC Public Health 2012), and as an expert advisor to the MOHLTC on its provincial pandemic plan. The most notable example of my leadership and excellence in creative professional activity related to health policy ethics – specifically, my ability to marshal and translate ethics scholarship into practical,

effective, and meaningful guidance in response to an urgent health policy issue of broad societal relevance – is my recent work in developing an ethical framework for resource allocation in response to the Sandoz drug supply shortage in Canada. In March 2012, I was asked by the MOHLTC to sit on a Drug Shortage Technical Advisory Group and to provide ethics advice on a system-wide strategy for the redistribution of available drug supply and the modification of health services, if necessary. I struck a small working group of ethicists affiliated with the University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics and the Regional Bioethics Group in southern Ontario to assist me in this effort. The resulting ethical framework outlined guiding ethical principles and a decision algorithm to aid health system and organization decision-makers respond to and address the clinical and system-wide implications of the drug supply shortage. The ethical framework was endorsed by the MOHLTC, incorporated into the drug redistribution framework of Ontario’s 14 Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs), and adopted by health organizations and associations across Ontario as well as other provinces in Canada. The ethics working group wrote and published a journal article describing the development and implementation of the ethical framework (Gibson et al., Healthcare Quarterly 2012), presented the ethical framework in MOHLTC/Ontario Hospital Association sponsored webinar for health sector stakeholders, and is planning a national symposium on ethical issues and strategies associated with drug supply shortages in collaboration with ethics colleagues in British Columbia. 2. Priority Setting in Health Care: In this thematic area, my focus is on priority setting in organizational decision-making by senior health leaders in meso-level health institutions (e.g., hospitals, regional health authorities) with a primary interest in priority setting methods and a secondary interest in the role of evidence and values in priority setting decisions. Over the last 10 years, I have cultivated a highly productive interdisciplinary research partnership with Dr. Craig Mitton, a health economist at the University of British Columbia. Our current research is focused on developing a conceptual framework that defines high performance in organizational priority setting. This study builds on our previous case study research (independently and together) on priority setting by health leadership teams in various Canadian health organizations (e.g., Gibson et al., Healthcare Quarterly 2005; Gibson et al., Social Science and Medicine 2006; Madden et al., BMC Health Services Research 2010), which underscored the critical influence of institutional factors on the ability of decision-makers to set priorities and (re)allocate resources. The emerging conceptual framework is the focus on a CIHR grant application this fall. The second notable collaboration has been the development of an interdisciplinary approach to priority setting based on two internationally recognized and discipline-specific priority setting frameworks: accountability for reasonableness (ethics) and program budgeting and marginal analysis (economics). In 2006, Mitton and I proposed that these two approaches could be incorporated into a more comprehensive and pragmatic approach that would nest the trade-off decisions entailed by resource scarcity within a fair priority setting process (Gibson et al., JHSRP 2006). In the intervening years, we have developed and tested an operational version of the integrated priority setting approach. Future collaboration will focus on ongoing conceptual development of the interdisciplinary approach with particular reference to the management science and quality improvement literatures. Over the last five years, I have been increasingly focused on knowledge translation in priority setting, including the development of practical guidance and continuing professional education for decision-

makers on how to implement priority setting and resource allocation processes in real-time (www.jointcentreforbioethics.ca/docs/A4R_Implementation_Guide2011_hospitals.pdf). This work has had a significant impact on priority setting processes in Ontario’s Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) as well as other health organizations across Canada. Over an 18-month period, Mitton and I undertook a collaborative project with Ontario’s LHINs, the goal of which was to develop, implement, and evaluate a shared priority setting approach for application within all 14 LHINs. The result was the LHIN Priority Setting and Decision-Making Framework (later known as the “Gibson-Mitton Framework”), which outlined a priority setting approach based on our interdisciplinary framework, including an implementation toolkit with operational instructions, decision tools and templates. The framework was adopted with minor refinements and approved by the LHIN Chief Executive Officers and Board Chairs; it is now being applied widely across the LHINs. The results of this collaboration have recently been published (Healthc Q 2011; 14(4):35-46). The innovative interdisciplinary priority setting approach has now been applied in eight other health organizations across Canada, including four regional health authorities in British Columbia and Manitoba, 1 public health unit and 2 large hospitals in Ontario, and one hospital in Nova Scotia.

3. Ethics & Health Institutions: In this thematic area, my focus is on ethical issues arising in the management and governance of health organizations, the strategies used to address these ethical issues, and the effectiveness of these strategies. The timeliness of this research is underscored by recent emphasis on ethics in accreditation standards related to Board and senior management decision-making as well as increased attention by professional bodies (e.g., Canadian College of Health Leaders) to ethics as a core leadership competency. I am currently leading two CIHR-funded grants examining organizational ethics and ethics infrastructure development in health organizations. The first study, which is being conducted in collaboration with Accreditation Canada and the Canadian College of Health Leaders, involves a national survey with Canadian health executives, managers, and ethicists about organizational ethics across different health sectors. Previous research on organizational ethics, including my own, has been primarily focused on acute care hospitals. Hence, this study is intended to fill a significant knowledge gap about ethical issues in other health sectors and institutions. In 2005-2007, I led a large exploratory study involving health organizations affiliated with the University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics. This study found that any hard and fast line between clinical ethics and organizational ethics as domains of practice was largely artificial. This was most evident in the findings that healthcare ethicists were experiencing an expanding scope of professional practice, which had traditional focused on ethical issues at the bedside, but was increasingly being addressed to ethical issues at an organizational level. A related finding was that healthcare ethicists reported a significant skill gap in their ability to respond effectively to organizational ethics issues (Silva et al, J Med Ethics 2008). In the second CIHR-funded study, we are specifically investigating the concept of effectiveness with respect to hospital-based ethics programs. Through a series of in-depth case studies, we are mapping the key domains, indicators, and success factors related to the ethics program effectiveness. In a sub-study of this larger project, I am supervising a MSc thesis research project examining ethicists’ perspectives of effectiveness. Collectively, these studies have underscored the need for more scholarly work on ethics evaluation, including the conceptual and empirical development of approaches to evaluating and improving ethics programs within health organizations.

15 22 April 2014

Ethics evaluation has been a significant area of scholarly focus for me over the last five years, particularly in my academic leadership and consulting practice at the University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics. I have supervised a number of MHSc practicum projects on evaluation of research ethics boards. However, my most significant contributions have been in two areas. First, I led an exploratory project that defined a framework for evaluating excellence in bioethics, which include key domains, indicators, and metrics of excellence. This was prompted in part by increased queries from affiliated health sector partners and academic units on how to ‘measure’ the value for investment of bioethics research, education, and practice. The resulting report, “Evaluating excellence in bioethics: a value for investment project”, has informed how the JCB measures its own performance and has generated interest among bioethics programs in the United States, including the Association of Bioethics Program Directors, the Berman Institute of Bioethics at Johns Hopkins University, and the National Centre for Health Care Ethics at the US Veterans Health Administration. (See: www.jointcentreforbioethics.ca/ docs/VOI_final_report_FINAL_Dec2010.pdf.). The second area of significant creative professional activity is in the development of a research-based quality improvement approach to ethics infrastructure development in health institutions. The innovation in this approach is its application of management science concepts (e.g., change management, strategic planning, product development models) and a mixed methodology (i.e., survey, key informant interviews, benchmarking) to the strategic and operational challenges of building effective ethics programs in health organizations. Key outputs include conceptual innovation in the creation of an Ethics Roadmap for ethics program development and a robust suite of consulting tools, resources, and facilitated planning workshops to assist health organizations build, review or improve the impact and effectiveness of their ethics programs. (See: www.jointcentreforbioethics.ca/services/consultation.shtml). Since 2007, this approach has been successfully implemented in 15 health organizations, including hospitals, community care organizations, and ambulatory care facilities. 2. TEACHING PHILOSOPHY I approach teaching as a constitutive element of the knowledge generation continuum and in particular, as a form of knowledge translation and exchange. On the one hand, in the conduct of my research and creative professional activity, I am continuously considering how my research questions and findings and similarly, how the conceptual innovation and novel practice development activities I am leading in response to real-world issue and challenges, might fruitfully inform or translate into a theoretical or case discussion, classroom exercise, or course assignment about ethics and values in health systems and institutions. As a result, the course curricula are refreshed on an ongoing basis. On the other hand, I am very aware that my students, who are primarily practicing health professionals and administrators, are experts in their own fields and may have more personal and professional experience of the health sector than I have. This means not only that the classroom provides a venue for peer-to-peer exchange of expert knowledge between and among the students themselves, but also that I am as much learner as I am teacher in the interaction. As such, teaching entails a creative and productive interplay between two critical teaching roles: i) knowledge translator in the more traditional sense of the teacher conveying knowledge to her students, and ii) knowledge broker, which includes elements of both knowledge exchange and knowledge co-generation through this exchange. Hence, a fundamental responsibility of my role as teacher is to create a learning environment that facilitates this generative interplay of knowledge.

In my teaching, I approach my students as adult learners. This means that I take very seriously that the students enter the classroom with their own learning objectives that are aligned with their professional or academic aspirations. Given their professional backgrounds in health and health care, the students tend to be action-oriented and are often seeking new conceptual and practical understandings that will enable them concretely to meet the ethical challenges experienced or anticipated in their professional practice and work environment. Finally, I have found that my students, particularly those enrolled in the MHSc in Bioethics program, are less motivated by the achievement of good grades than they are by the quality of the learning experience. As a result, they have high expectations of their time spent in the classroom, the written feedback they receive on their course assignments, and the learning exercises provided during and outside class time. I am consistently attentive to the importance of ensuring that the practical relevance and timeliness of the course material and have incorporated opportunities for iterative feedback from my students to assess whether it is meeting their learning objectives, conveying practical insight into real-time challenges in health care, and offering a stimulating and enriching learning experience. This involves a lot of listening on my part. At the same time, my role as teacher is to help the students transcend the finite boundaries of their own experience and immediate perceived learning needs to stretch, grow, and excel through vigorous and challenging intellectual engagement with the course material. Hence, an additional responsibility of my role as teacher is to bring my expertise intentionally and explicitly to bear in helping to ensure that the students develop the requisite core knowledge and competencies in bioethics. This means that while I may actively pursue concordance of their learning needs and expectations and the overall direction and content of the course materials and teaching, this is ultimately a negotiated concordance kept in check by the critical importance of ensuring the students acquire this core knowledge and develop these competencies. In the design and delivery of my teaching, I am constantly reminded of a comment made by one of my colleagues, who came to bioethics later in professional life in academic medicine: “Bioethics is a hard discipline. There are lots of people who know a lot about science and medicine and empirical things like that. There are a lot of people who know a lot about ethics & philosophy but there are not many people who know that much about both. And you really have to have mastery in both areas to do bioethics well” (www.jointcentreforbioethics.ca/docs/VOI_final_report_FINAL_Dec2010.pdf). This comment captures the importance of an interplay between theory and practice in the teaching of bioethics, the interdisciplinary richness and potential of bioethics as a field for teaching, and the vulnerability of both student and teacher in approaching bioethics as a field of academic education and professional practice. As a bioethics teacher, I endeavour to role model and encourage a reflective equilibrium between theory and practice, moving backing and forth between moral intuitions about cases to ethical principles or between the practical constraints of health care in real-time (“is”) and the ethical imperative embedded within it (“ought”) to achieve a coherence that is theoretically sound and empirically grounded. I have actively incorporated a range of disciplinary lenses – philosophical ethics, economics, political theory, management science – in the course curricula and in my teaching approach, which I have found has the three-fold benefit of enriching understanding of the ethical issues, expanding the conceptual and practical tools within the ethics toolkit, and creating a learning environment that facilitates reflective practice and the constructive engagement with diverse perspectives. Learning entails change, which can be exciting at times and downright scary at others. Hence, my role as teacher is in part to be a facilitator of this change, but create an environment of

This publication illustrates my leadership and excellence in marshaling and translating ethics scholarship into practical, effective, and meaningful guidance in response to an urgent health policy issue of broad societal relevance. The ethical framework outlines guiding ethical principles and a decision algorithm to aid health system and organization decision-makers respond to and address the clinical and system-wide implications of the Sandoz drug supply shortage. The ethical framework was endorsed by the MOHLTC, incorporated into the drug redistribution framework of Ontario’s 14 Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs), and adopted by health organizations and associations across Ontario as well as other provinces in Canada. Subsequently, we wrote and published a journal article describing the development and implementation of the ethical framework (Healthc Q 2012; 15(3): 26-35). In her opening editorial, Peggy Leatt (Editor-in-Chief; Professor and Department Chair, Health Policy and Management, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) wrote: “Most interesting to me is the portion of their article that describes the resulting framework's implementation, and the tactical considerations that each healthcare organization must take when operationalizing those high-level principles.” The journal article is one of only a very few publications in the literature addressing ethical issues about drug supply shortages. Since its publication, several reprint requests have been received from Canadian and American universities. Our work was also recently cited in a conference presentation by a Maryland-based health conglomerate at the annual meeting of the American Society for Bioethics and the Humanities (ASBH), which is the largest interdisciplinary and interprofessional bioethics conference in North America.

This paper fills an important knowledge gap about the Canadian public’s views on how the ethical and practical challenge of scarce resources should be addressed in an influenza pandemic. The driving force behind this research project was the highly influential ethical framework for pandemic planning and response – the Stand on Guard for Thee: ethical considerations in preparedness for pandemic influenza report (2005) – of which I was a Principal Author. The ethical framework, which has been adopted and applied in pandemic plans across Canada and around the world, was developed with input from public health officials, health system and organization managers, clinicians, legal scholars, ethicists, and other experts, but lacked the insight and input of the Canadian public. To bridge this gap, I was part of a team of investigators on a Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) funded grant to examine public perspectives on four key pandemic ethics issues, including priority setting of health resources. The CIHR study involved a national public telephone survey (see below - Ritvo et al, BMC Public Health 2010) and public town hall meetings across Canada. I was Lead Investigator of the Priority Setting research theme and led the team of researchers and trainees who designed, implemented, and conducted the qualitative study, which is reported in this paper.

This paper provides an excellent example of how I am able to translate conceptual innovation into real-world impact in healthcare. In 2006, Craig Mitton and I had proposed the concept of an interdisciplinary approach to priority setting based on our research in the Calgary Health Region (see below – Gibson et al., JHSRP 2006). The conceptual innovation was in bringing together two internationally recognized priority setting approaches – program budgeting and marginal analysis (economics) and accountability for reasonableness (ethics) – into a more comprehensive approach that nests the trade-off decisions entailed by resource scarcity within a fair priority setting process. This publication, which was the lead article in a special thematic section on ethical issues in health care, is the first published description of the interdisciplinary approach, its practical application in the health sector, and its impact in improving decision-making in Ontario’s Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs). The framework described in this article was subsequently adopted as the foundation for a common priority setting and decision-making framework across all 14 LHINs (e.g., www.torontocentrallhin.on.ca/Page.aspx?id=5900).

This article makes two significant contributions to the literature: first, it documents the expanding scope of professional practice of healthcare ethicists, which has traditional focused on clinical ethics (i.e., bedside ethics) but is increasingly required to address ethical issues on a broader institutional level (i.e., organizational ethics), and second, it illuminates critical gaps in the training and preparation of healthcare ethicists. The article has been cited in the peer-reviewed literature and disseminated by others internationally through various on-line ethics resources, (e.g., Bioethics International, EthicsShare.org, healthcareorganizationalethics.blogspot.ca/2008/06/hospital-organizational-ethics.html). Additionally, the article’s findings have informed how bioethics is taught at the University of Toronto through its MHSc in Bioethics program and its post-graduate Fellowship in Clinical and Organizational Bioethics: MHSc students are now required to take 20 hours of training in organizational ethics (equivalent of a 0.5 year course) and Clinical and Organizational Bioethics Fellows receive training through two professional development workshops, which I developed and have been leading since 2010 (i. Ethics in Health Care Governance and Management; and ii. Ethics Program Development: Strategic and Operational Planning).

This publication provides an excellent example of the international impact of my priority setting research and expertise. It is one of a series of articles reporting the results of my collaboration with the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) to develop a method for setting priorities in global child health and nutrition research investments (the “CHNRI method”).

contribution was in introducing the concept of criteria-based decision-making within a legitimate and fair priority setting process, incorporating considerations of burden of disease as well as stakeholder values. This particular article has been cited 20 times. However, the priority setting method itself is reported to have been applied by more than 300 global child health and nutrition experts (www.chnri.org/activities.php?tab=2), and more significantly to have been adopted by the World Health Organization’s Department of Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health as a guide to its 2009 consultation proceedings with researchers and funders to define shared research priorities to achieve the Millennium Development Goal of reducing child mortality by two-thirds by 2015 (www.whqlibdoc.who.int/publications/2009/9789241598651_eng.pdf).

Innovation in Continuing Professional Education

The PrePARE Tutorial (Preparing Participants for Allocating Resources Equitably) – An Online Tutorial for Advisory Committee Participants in Resource Allocation Decisions in Health Care I co-created this innovative on-line tutorial designed to introduce drug review committee members to the clinical, economic, legal, and ethical considerations relevant to informed decision-making in the development of drug funding recommendations. Funded by the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer (CPAC), the tutorial was developed as a collaboration of CPAC, the Canadian Centre for Applied Research in Cancer Control (ARCC), and the Priorities in Cancer Control Network (PICCNet). I was very actively involved in the development process, including its overall design, specification of learning objectives and modular approach, development of content (with a particular focus on the ethics module), and iterative review of the complete content prior to its launch in May 2012. Accessible at: elearning.cancerview.ca/cv/portal/Home/ParticipateAndConnect/PCProfessionals/Collaborating/eLearningTools?_afrLoop=349912383544000&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=hzaisq84d_4).

Graduate Curriculum Development

I assumed responsibility for MSC 3004Y (Ethics Committees and Consultation) in 2009 and HAD 5771 (Resource Allocation Ethics) in 2010. The original curricula for these courses were developed in 1999 in response to the students’ learning needs and the state of knowledge in the field of bioethics, which was then primarily focus on clinical ethics theory and practice. Since then, however, there has been an increased focus among health administrators and accreditation standards on ethics at an organizational level. The current climate of fiscal restraint has also created a sense of urgency about how to address and respond to resource scarcity in real-time, and among those students who lead or aspire to lead ethics programs in their health organizations, how to build and sustain effective ethics programs, and importantly, to demonstrate and defend their ongoing ‘value for investment’. By consequence, the learning needs of and required core competencies of our professional MHSc in Bioethics students have changed. Moreover, there have been significant and relevant scholarly advances in the theory and practice of ethics infrastructure development, including the application of systems thinking and health care management and evaluation approaches, on the one hand, and resource allocation, on the other, including the robust development of interdisciplinary approaches over the last 10 years. I have revised the course curriculum significantly to reflect these changing needs and scholarly advances. Excellent student course evaluations confirm that the revised curriculum and its overall delivery is resonating with their learning needs and exceeding their expectations.

MSC 3004Y (Ethics Committees and Consultation): I reframed this course to focus on ethics theory and practice at the organizational level in health institutions. The first offering of the revised

Page 56: Curriculum Vitae - University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics …jcb.utoronto.ca/people/documents/cv_gibson.pdf · 2015-06-16 · 1 22 April 2014 Curriculum Vitae Dr. Jennifer

56 22 April 2014

curriculum was not entirely successful, which reflects a lack of integration in my own thinking about how the twin aims of i) introducing students to organizational as a domains of ethics theory and practice, and ii) exploring the dimensions of ethics infrastructure development in health institutions, could be coherently and effectively within a course on ethics and health institutions. Given excellent and candid feedback from my first cohort of students (2009-2010), I revised the course significantly with stellar results. Students receive 20 hours of instruction on the theory and practice of organizational ethics (an increase of 16 hours compared to 1999 and 8 hours compared to my initial offering in 2009-2010) and 20 hours of instruction on ethics infrastructure development, which includes a new thematic focus on ethics leadership as a core competency. Moreover, students are introduced to system-level preventive ethics approaches, change management theory, and program evaluation methods, and their class assignments are designed to facilitate reflection as well as skills relevant to the role of an emerging ethics leader in their organizations (e.g., writing a briefing note on an ethics issue for their institution’s Board of Directors, developing a balanced scorecard for evaluating ethics impact and performance).

HAD 5771H (Resource Allocation Ethics): This course was originally designed around introducing students to a single ethical framework (accountability for reasonableness – A4R) and in particular, around building their skills in qualitative research methods using A4R as a conceptual framework for analyzing the fairness of priority setting in various health settings. This approach was highly successful in generating a series of peer-reviewed publications evaluating and suggesting improvements to the procedural fairness of priority setting processes, especially in low and middle income countries. Given student feedback, health sector demand, and the evolution of interdisciplinary approaches to priority setting, the need for curriculum renewal was urgent. Starting in 2011, students are now introduced to a number of disciplinary approaches to resource allocation (e.g., philosophical ethics, economics, clinical evaluation, political theory) examined through a practical ethics lens. Class exercises and course assignments are designed to explore the application of these disciplinary lenses to the practical and ethical complexities of real-world resource allocation challenges. Moreover, students leave the course with an appreciation of the normative and empirical complexity of resource allocation, the range of conceptual and methodology tools available to help them manage resource allocation challenges in practice, and an interdisciplinary ethical lens with which to analyze the resource challenges they face.
