After my PhD in theoretical physics, I turned my attention to the ethical and societal implications of science and technology. My current research and teaching activities focus on the embedding of scientific practices in ‘the broader context’.

This means both inside and outside the scientific community. As far as the first one is concerned, I am interested in questions of scientific ethics (what do scientists themselves consider ‘good science’ and why?), using as a virtue-ethical approach.
As far as the second one is concerned, relevant issues for me are the role of normativity in expertise and the concepts of RRI (Responsible Research and Innovation) and ELSA (Ethical / Legal / Societal aspects of Science and Technology).

The ethical implications of (Gen)AI have become a prominent topic both in my teaching and my research.
