<b>PhD Scholarship: Ethical, Social and Regulatory Issues in Advanced Prenatal Testing</b></p>
<p style="font-family:"Avenir Next"; font-size:14px; margin:10px 0px 0px; font-stretch:normal; line-height:normal; color:rgb(29,29,29)">
Monash University Arts Graduate Research is funding a PhD scholarship to undertake research on the ethical, social and regulatory aspects of advanced non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). The scholarship is associated with a Linkage Project funded by the Australian
Research Council, led by Professor Catherine Mills. The PhD scholarship provides an opportunity for a student who is interested in the ethics of reproductive technologies to undertake Doctoral research alongside leaders in the field, as part of a project that
integrates both theoretical and empirical bioethics and bridges between academic expertise and leading clinical and industry partners. </p>
<p style="font-family:"Avenir Next"; font-size:14px; margin:10px 0px 0px; font-stretch:normal; line-height:normal; color:rgb(29,29,29)">
The successful applicant will work with the research team on a topic that explores the ethics of genome-wide screening for foetal abnormalities, which will considerably expand the number of conditions that can be detected and increase the complexity of pre-
and post-test counselling. Within this broad area, the student will devise their own topic and develop it in consultation with the research team. </p>
<p style="font-family:"Avenir Next"; font-size:14px; margin:10px 0px 0px; font-stretch:normal; line-height:normal; color:rgb(29,29,29)">
The successful applicant will receive a Faculty of Arts Research Living Allowance, currently valued at $29, 000 per annum 2020 full-time rate (tax-free stipend), indexed plus allowances as per RTP stipend scholarship conditions at: <a href="https://www.monash.edu/graduate-research/future-students/scholarships/scholarship-policy-and-procedures">monash.edu/graduate-research/future-students/scholarships/scholarship-policy-and-procedures</a>.
For an international awardee, the Faculty will also provide a tuition fee scholarship and Single Overseas Health Cover (OSHC).</p>
