Meet the Team
The Institute for Professionalism and Ethical Practice is organized to bring together a talented and diverse group of contributors. These individuals offer the blend of knowledge and experience necessary to help us fulfill our mission of bringing a relational approach to the education of healthcare practitioners, one that integrates patient and family perspectives, professionalism, and the everyday ethics of clinical practice.
The IPEP family includes a leadership team, a team of faculty associates, and a number of advisors and coordinators who provide essential program administration and research support, technical advice, and performing arts consultation.
