Catherine Mills

I am currently working at Monash University, as an ARC Future Fellow in the Centre for Human Bioethics. I have previously been Senior Lecturer in Bioethics at University of Sydney, and Lecturer in Philosophy at University of New South Wales, and the Australian National University. I completed a PhD in Philosophy at the Australian National University. My main research interests lie in the areas of biopolitics and bioethics, especially in relation to technologies of reproduction. Within this, I am particularly interested in conceptions of normalcy and their political and ethical potency, as well as concepts of ethical subjectivity, and responsibility. I am currently engaged in several research projects, including one on the concept of responsibility in reproductive ethics, another on obstetric ultrasound and its impact on the experience of pregnancy and ideas about the human foetus, as well as a book project on the main theories of biopolitics.
