Her research interests include research ethics, reproductive health technologies, and love and desire. As a Macquarie University Inaugural Learning and Teaching Fellow in 2008, Dr Lisa Wynn worked to develop concrete ways to incorporate hands-on student ethnographic research projects into teaching at Macquarie. In 2012, she was named a National Teaching Fellow by the Australian Government's Office of Learning and Teaching. For her fellowship, she will investigate how university ethics committees are assessing undergraduate research in social science disciplines and what barriers teachers and universities face to expanding student research with humans, in particular the barrier of obtaining ethics clearance for human research.
