Misha Angrist is Associate Professor of the Practice at SSRI, a Senior Fellow in Science & Society, and Visiting Associate Professor of the Practice in the Sanford School of Public Policy as part of the DeWitt Wallace Center for Media & Democracy. He directs the undergraduate Science & Society Certificate Program and the First-year FOCUS cluster on Science and the Public. He teaches and mentors students in the MA in Bioethics & Science Policy.

In his work, he explores the intersection of biology and society, especially as it relates to the governance of human participation in research and medicine.

He chronicled this experience in his book, Here is a Human Being: At the Dawn of Personal Genomics.
