Celia B. Fisher  

Definition

  • Wife, mother, scholar, public advocate: Celia Fisher is one of those superwomen inspired by the 1970s who showed the world that she could indeed do it all—and do it all well. Most of us would be content with one major professional contribution, but Fisher is widely recognized both for being one of the founders of the field of applied developmental science (ADS) and for her work in research ethics, in which she has used the theory, methods, and the approach of ADS to show that ethics is not just inherent in research and practice but also a subject worthy of scientific study.
