Mark G.
Kuczewski, PhD, is a philosopher by training whose research and writings
have focused extensively on clinical ethical decision making. He is the
author of
Fragmentation and Consensus: Communitarian and Casuist Bioethics
(Georgetown University Press, 1997), co-author (with Rosa Lynn Pinkus) of
the popular,
An Ethics Casebook for Hospitals: Practical Approaches to Everyday Cases
(Georgetown University Press, 1999), and co-editor (with Ronald Polansky) of
Bioethics: Ancient Themes in Contemporary Issues (MIT Press, 2000). He
is also the series editor of the new
Practicing Bioethics
book series from Rowman & Littlefield.
Mark is a
member of the board of the
American Society for Bioethics and Humanities. He has participated in several ASBH Task
Forces including the recent group that has issued the landmark document,
Improving Competence in Ethics Consultation: A Learner’s Guide.
Mark’s
interests in bioethics education span the continuum of medical, graduate and
continuing medical education. His recent scholarship on fostering
professionalism among medical students has focused on a model of
professionalism that emphasizes the role of medical professionals as
advocates for social justice and the promotion of the common good. He is
currently exploring the role of reflection and the place of spirituality
within this kind of professionalism curriculum. Mark created and developed
the online MA program in bioethics & health policy at Loyola (in conjunction
with Kayhan Parsi), the only online MA program of its kind, and pioneered
the innovative
ethics consultation simulation seminar. Prior to his arrival at Loyola,
Mark was the director of the Master of Arts program in bioethics at the
Medical College of Wisconsin and is largely responsible for making it the
first such program available via the internet. As the former associate director
of the Consortium Ethics Program at the University of Pittsburgh, he also
has extensive experience designing educational programs for hospital ethics
committees and other clinical professionals
Mark’s
current research interests also include health disparities, disability
ethics, the process of informed consent, research ethics, and teaching
teamwork across health-care professions.
