I am Associate Professor of Philosophy and Principal Investigator for Ethics and Responsible Innovation at the BISS Institute. I studied at McGill University in Montreal, Canada (BA) and University of Leuven, Belgium (MA, PhD).

I research how the things we build shape the way we interact with one another, in politics, at work, and in scientific practice.

My main teaching and research interests are in political philosophy, phenomenology, philosophy of technology, and bioethics. I am particularly interested in questions surrounding the concept of Europe and post-national political institutions; and the political, ethical and anthropological issues raised by new technologies. At the most fundamental level I am interested in the relation between sense and nature.
