Mildred Cho was Principal Investigator of the Stanford University School of Medicine Center for Integration of Research on Genetics and Ethics (CIRGE). The goals of this center were to 1) to enhance the incorporation of ethical and societal considerations into the practice of genomic research on behavior through identifying the issues raised by such research; 2) to conduct scholarly studies that inform the ethical practice of research; and 3) to develop mechanisms that enhance the incorporation of ELSI considerations into research. The center operated from 2004 - 2016.
