Published today in AJOB Empirical: we surveyed bioethicists to understand their attitude toward social justice in their work, and we draw implications for protecting scholars engaged in this work. Excited this is finally out!

This week, Sheba passed away while surrounded by some of her favorite humans. I adopted Sheba from a shelter in Detroit. In our ten years together, we did four cross country roadtrips. We hiked mountains throughout California and took lazy afternoon naps in Central Park.

Introducing myself! I’m a social welfare scholar & healthcare ethics consultant at Baylor College of Medicine.

My research examines how have social, political, and economic systems shaped what we think of as “ethical” in healthcare settings.
