About

At the University of Pittsburgh, I am an Associate Professor in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science and Director of he Research Ethics Consultation Service. I am also a Research Associate with the Centre for Philosophy of Epidemiology, Medicine, and Public Health at Durham University and the University of Johannesburg.

My main research interests lie in the philosophy of medicine. I am especially interested in: scientific inference in epidemiology and clinical research; diagnosis; clinical reasoning; evidence and evidence-based medicine; and the nature of disease, mental disorder, and death. I recently completed work on a forthcoming book titled The New Modern Medicine: Disease, Evidence, and Epidemiological Medicine, supported by a grant from the National Institutes of Health National Library of Medicine. The book examines philosophical problems brought by the twentieth century integration of epidemiological research and epidemiological thinking into clinical medicine. I have also trained in medicine and in medical curriculum design and am interested in how philosophy and the sciences of reasoning can enhance medical training.
