Will living longer make our lives better?
As people live longer - and healthier lives - the question remains about whether these longer lives are better and leave us happier.
I received my PhD in Philosophy from the University of Western Ontario in London, Canada, in 2016. My research interests are at the intersection of moral philosophy and bioethics. I wrote my thesis on the moral status and well-being of patients diagnosed as being in a vegetative state, but who have demonstrated 'covert consciousness' through functional neuroimaging.
