Stephen R. Latham, JD, PhD, is Director of the Yale Interdisciplinary Center for Bioethics. Though his teaching and scholarship is primarily focused on biomedical ethics and health law, in recent years he has begun teaching environmental ethics at the Yale School of the Environment and in the undergraduate Environmental Studies major. He has particular interests in health disparities related to climate change, legal challenges to addressing climate change, environmental obligations to future generations, and the development of a values-based (axiological) environmental ethic.
