* '''[[Brian Earp]]''' is Associate Director of the Yale-Hastings Program in Ethics and Health Policy at Yale University and the Hastings Center Bioethics Research Institute, and a Research Fellow in the Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford. With degrees from Yale, Oxford, and Cambridge universities, his work is cross-disciplinary, following training in gender and sexuality, philosophy, psychology, history and sociology of science and medicine, and ethics.

He was also invited to submit materials based on his work on female and male genital cutting to a special committee of the European Parliament; this work has now been published as part of a monograph series produced by the same. Other scholarly highlights include serving as Guest Editor of the Journal of Medical Ethics for a special issue on circumcision; serving as Guest Editor for the Medical Law Review for a special issue on regulating sexual boundaries; authoring a forthcoming book on male, female, and intersex genital cutting for Chicago University Press; and publishing more than 20 peer-reviewed essays or book chapters on the science and ethics of childhood genital cutting, including an in-depth analysis of the 2008 WHO/UN policy on "FGM" in the ''Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal'', whose editor devoted a special issue to the article, with invited responses from leading experts. Brian currently serves as Associate Editor of the ''Journal of Medical Ethics'', Associate Editor for the ''Yale Journal of Law & Humanities'', Ethics Editor for the ''Journal of Clinical and Translational Research'', and sits on the Board of Editorial Consultants for ''Public Affairs Quarterly''.
