Philip Martin Rosoff
Professor Emeritus of Pediatrics

My main interests are clinical ethics with a concentration on the equitable allocation of scarce resources (rationing). In this area, I have done work on planning for pandemic influenza and allocation of drugs during shortages. Before retirement I played a major role in the Clinical Ethics Service at Duke Hospital and chair the hospital's Ethics Committee.
