Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine
CBSSM
The Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine (CBSSM) was formed in 2010 through a merger of a pre-existing bioethics Program and a decision sciences Center at the University of Michigan Medical School. Since then, we have developed a shared vision that has unified faculty and staff who had previously functioned in separate silos (ethics service, ethics scholarship, and decision sciences) and implemented a variety of programs that benefit our members and the patients, trainees, researchers, and faculty of Michigan Medicine. CBSSM is led by interim Co-Directors Dr. Brian Zikmund-Fisher and Prof. Kayte Spector-Bagdady.
