I am Research Fellow in Philosophy at the University of Glasgow and Head of STEM Interdisciplinary Research at COGITO. Before this I was a Research Fellow at the Eidyn Research Centre, University of Edinburgh.
My main research interests include epistemology (understanding, social epistemology, intellectual virtues and vices, assertion), and moral & political philosophy (bioethics, human enhancement (including issues of inequality and distributive justice), the philosophy of well-being, gender and race).
My work is often interdisciplinary, with medicine (including pharmacology, dependence and addiction) and psychology (including philosophy of counselling and psychotherapy).
