Biography
Following a B.A. and M.Litt at Trinity College Dublin, I received my Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Leeds in 2008. I also hold a Masters in Legal Science from the National University of Ireland. I have previously lectured in Philosophy at the University of Leeds, the University of Warwick, and Oxford Brookes University.My research is primarily concerned with the so-called "fact-value distinction"; in particular, I am interested in the way that the ethical, political, and legal value-claims typical of modern liberal democracies shape and respond to the findings of biological, medical, and other sciences.
