Professor of Law

Biography

Edward (Ted) Dove is Professor of Law at the School of Law and Criminology, Maynooth University (having joined the School in July 2024), and an Honorary Professor at Edinburgh Law School.

He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree (BA) in Political Science and Civil Law and Common Law degrees (BCL, LLB) from McGill University, a Master of Laws degree (LLM) from Columbia University, and a PhD in Law from the University of Edinburgh.

Ted’s primary research interests are in the areas of health privacy law, research ethics governance, and medical law.

He is a member of Maynooth University's Social Research Ethics Sub-Committee and the University's Assisting Living and Learning (ALL) Institute (https://www.maynoothuniversity.ie/all-institute).

Ted has been involved as a Co-Investigator of the Horizon Europe-funded project, Challenges and Innovative Changes in Research Ethics Reviews (“CHANGER”) (https://changer-project.eu/), which aims to promote changes in research ethics reviews that strengthen the capacities of researchers to incorporate ethical judgements in the project design and implementation, and to support research ethics committees to address new challenges posed by new technologies and new research practices.

Currently, Ted is a member of several ethics advisory boards of research projects (funded by Horizon Europe and other research funders) and is an Editor of the journal International Data Privacy Law. Ted is also currently an Editorial Board member of the European Journal of Health Law and the open access journal Research Ethics.

Ted has previously served as a member of the National Data Guardian's Panel, which advises on the state of information governance across the health and care system in England, and has served as the UK National Contact for the European Association of Health Law (EAHL) and the UK representative for the European Network of Research Ethics Committees (EUREC). Formerly he was the Coordinator of the Regulatory and Ethics Work Stream of the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health, and lead drafter of its Framework for Responsible Sharing of Genomic and Health-Related Data, which has since been translated into 14 languages. 

Among other works, Ted is the author of the open access monograph Regulatory Stewardship of Health Research: Navigating Participant Protection and Research Promotion (Edward Elgar, 2020); editor of Confidentiality, Privacy, and Data Protection in Biomedicine: International Concepts and Issues (Routledge, 2025); co-editor of Law and Legacy in Medical Jurisprudence: Essays in Honour of Graeme Laurie (Cambridge University Press, 2022); co-editor of the open access volume Promoting the “Human” in Law, Policy, and Medicine: Essays in Honour of Bartha Maria Knoppers (Brill, 2025); co-editor of the open access volume The Cambridge Handbook of Health Research Regulation (Cambridge University Press, 2021); and co-author of two editions of one of the leading medical law textbooks in the UK, Mason and McCall Smith’s Law and Medical Ethics (12th edn, Oxford University Press, 2023).

Ted is currently working on three book projects: (1) a textbook on health privacy law, to be published by Edward Elgar; (2) a monograph with Prof Mark Taylor (Melbourne Law School) on reasonable expectations of health data, to be published by Cambridge University Press; and (3) an edited research handbook on medical jurisprudence, to be published by Edward Elgar.

Ted teaches several modules in the School of Law and Criminology, including Law of Torts (LW151) and Medical Law (LW317) at undergraduate level, and Health Privacy Law (LW654) at postgraduate level.
