I place particular emphasis on elucidating and assessing real-life contemporary injustices and ethical conflicts, especially injustices associated with gender and its intersections, promoting the use of philosophy as relevant and useful to policy, practice and scientific research. Much of my work uncovers ways in which injustice and inequalities are created or exacerbated in the domains of health and medicine, and develops ethical frameworks and conceptual resources for policy-makers, ethicists, scientists, educators, and practitioners.
Among the events I organize is a biennial conference with Anjum Hajat (School of Public Health, University of Washington), on Race, Health and Justice. You can watch the full conference from 2022, featuring George Yancy as the keynote speaker, on YouTube.
Highlights of my research include publications on the topics of relational equality, feminist bioethics, inequalities in global health partnerships, health inequities, and moral distress in nursing. My most cited research is on relational equality and on moral distress. Here's a selection of recent publications:
Feminist Challenges for Conceptions of Justice in Bioethics (2022)
Moral Distress and the Marginalization of Nurses (2024) with Georgina Campelia
