I am a bioethicist and philosopher of medicine, working as a Senior Lecturer in Health Ethics and Professionalism at Deakin University, Australia. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge and a Postdoctoral Fellowship at Novel Tech Ethics, Dalhousie University. I then served as Lecturer in Bioethics at the Australian National University, winning three teaching awards. My primary research interests are in reproductive technology (particularly ethical issues related to non-medical sex selection) and neuroethics (particularly ethical and philosophical issues related to diagnoses of mental illness).
