CUNY Consortium for Bioethics

Hello everyone!

Greetings from the CUNY Consortium for Bioethics! We hope that by now, everyone's semester is off and running. Before it gets too close to the end of the academic year, we thought that it would be a good time to get together again. This semester, we are very fortunate to have a distinguished guest come and speak with the Consortium -- S. Matthew Liao from New York University Center for Bioethics -- about his research and other topics in bioethics.

Professor Liao is the Director for the MA Program in Bioethics, the Associate Director of the Center for Bioethics, and a Clinical Associate Professor of Bioethics at New York University. From 2006 to 2009, he was the Deputy Director and James Martin Senior Research Fellow in the Program on the Ethics of the New Biosciences in the Faculty of Philosophy at Oxford University. He was the Harold T. Shapiro Research Fellow in the University Center for Human Values at Princeton University in 2003–2004, and a Greenwall Research Fellow at Johns Hopkins University and a Visiting Researcher at the Kennedy Institute of Ethics at Georgetown University from 2004–2006. In May 2007, he founded Ethics Etc, a group blog for discussing contemporary philosophical issues in ethics and related areas. He is interested in a wide range of issues including ethics, epistemology, metaphysics, moral psychology, and bioethics.
