Welcome!  

​

I am a philosopher of science and race, based at the Centre for the Study of the Life Sciences (Egenis), University of Exeter, UK.      

​​

My work examines the limits and implications of scientific classifications. My current focus is on human ancestry and how it is used in evolution and biomedicine.

​

Starting in January 2025, I lead HUGERA: an ERC-funded project that develop a framework for ethically responsible research in human genomics.
