The Research Team
Principal Investigator
Peter Glasner is Professorial Research Fellow for CESAGen at Cardiff University. He received his PhD in the sociology of religion from the London School of Economics and Political Science in 1973, and has taught at a number of institutions in Britain and Australia since 1970. His longstanding interests are in the organization and management of the new genetics, the development of innovative health technologies, and in public participation in techno-scientific decision-making. He has held grants from a number of research charities, the Home Office, the Medical Research Council, and the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). He is on the Programme Advisory Committee of the ESRC Innovative Health Technologies Programme, and is a member of the Wales Gene Park. He chairs the Working Party on the New Genetics for the Academy of the Social Sciences.
Senior Research Associate
Ruth McNally has a BSc (Hons) Genetics, an MA Socio-Legal Studies and a PhD in Science and Technology Studies. Prior to joining CESAGen, she was at Brunel University. Her research focus is the social relations of innovation in the biosciences. She has published one co-authored and two co-edited books with Peter Wheale: Genetic Engineering: Catastrophe or Utopia?; The Bio-Revolution: Cornucopia or Pandora’s Box?; Animal Genetic Engineering: Of Pigs, Oncomice and Men. She has published articles and reports on the risks of recombinant DNA technology; environmental risks and regulation of genetically modified organisms; European biotechnology policy; gene therapy; transgenic fox rabies vaccine; biopatenting; eugenics; and forensic DNA profiling.
