  • Daphne O. Martschenko

    Daphne O. Martschenko

    Assistant Professor (Research) of Pediatrics (Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics)

    BioDr. Daphne Oluwaseun Martschenko is an Assistant Professor at the Laurie J. Girand Center for Biomedical Ethics at Stanford. Her scholarship identifies novel ways to examine and enhance the ethical and socially responsible conduct, translation, and interpretation of human genetic research.

    Dr. Martschenko is passionate about fostering public and community engagement with controversial scientific research. She has appeared in the New York Times and on numerous podcasts including Freakonomics Radio. Dr. Martschenko’s work is published in publicly accessible media outlets such as Scientific American and The Conversation. In 2023, she was named one of 10 Scientists to Watch by ScienceNews.

    Dr. Martschenko is author of the book What We Inherit: How New Technologies and Old Myths Are Shaping Our Genomic Future, which she wrote with friend and colleague Sam Trejo, a sociologist at Princeton University. Over the past decade, the field of human genetics has rapidly produced a wide range of never-before-seen genomic tools; together, they debate and discuss a range of social, ethical, and policy issues raised by this so-called DNA revolution. Though there’s plenty the two disagree about, they share a firm belief that—in order to successfully navigate the transition to a society where genetic prediction is increasingly accurate and available—it is vital that society take seriously the impact both of DNA and of pernicious genetic myths.
