Excellent work by Dr. Elise Smith and colleagues! The ITS is lucky to have Dr. Smith lead our Research Ethics consultations and other programs. #CTSAProgram
This isn’t an add-on. Attentiveness reshapes who’s viewed as a knower.
If you work in qualitative research, this lens might be what your process is missing.
