Emma C. Gordon

I am a Lecturer in Applied Ethics in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Glasgow and Head of Interdisciplinary Research at the COGITO Epistemology Research Centre. My main research interests are in applied ethics (bioethics, neuroethics, medical ethics, environmental ethics, ethics of technology, ethics of gender&race), normative ethics (moral psychology, trust, emotions, wellbeing), and epistemology (understanding, social epistemology, intellectual virtues and vices, assertion). My work is often interdisciplinary, combining philosophy with medicine (including pharmacology, dependence and addiction) and psychology (including counselling and psychotherapy).
