Federica Berdini (she/they), PhD, Philosophy, University of Bologna
Federica’s research focuses on human agency and its societal and interpersonal recognition and attribution, and brings together ethics, philosophical and moral psychology, as well as feminist and social philosophy. In particular, she is interested in cases of agency exercised in non-ideal conditions or by ‘imperfect’ agents. Her most recent project, titled “The Nature and Ethics of Coping”, provides a philosophical account of the psychological phenomena of coping with stressful, traumatic, and challenging situations, and explores the ethical dimensions of such situations. Previously, Federica has been a postdoctoral fellow at the Centre de Recherche en Éthique in Montréal and at the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich. She is also co-founder of the Italian Society for Women in Philosophy (SWIP Italia), where she served as member of the Executive Board and as coordinator of a mentoring program for women in philosophy.
Sarah (Sadie) Warren, PhD, Philosophy, Emory University
Sarah is a Postdoctoral Fellow with the Centre for Ethics. She received her PhD in Philosophy from Emory University, where her dissertation examined philosophical contributions to thinking through the environmental crisis and its relationship to self-world understanding, moving between eco-phenomenology, new materialism, and American pragmatism (especially the naturalistic metaphysics of John Dewey). Alongside this research, Sarah has a strong interest in supporting interdisciplinary, public-inclusive, and digital scholarship projects. Working within programs and organizations like the Emory Center for Digital Scholarship, Philosophers for Sustainability, and Common Good Atlanta, she strives to mobilize humanistic study in service of the worldly experiences and concerns that undergird and suffuse it.

Postdoctoral Fellows
Benjamin Davis (Centre for Ethics Postdoctoral Fellow in Ethics), Philosophy, Emory University
My research considers the responsibilities of elite actors today. My publications speak to the quotidian decisions of pre-professional and college-educated actors. Daily practices are always tied to divisions of labor across the globe (who sewed those chinos?) and within cities (who pulls espresso and sweeps donut crumbs?). I am interested in the orientations and pressures that entangle elite actors in a glass-paneled environment and the ruptures and challenges that invite them to — or demand that they — get out of it.
Juliette Ferry-Danini (Centre for Ethics Postdoctoral Fellow in Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, 2020-21), Philosophy, Sorbonne Université

Virtual Visiting Scholars
Teresa Heffernan, English, Saint Mary’s University
I explore the ethical and existential questions that emerge from the entanglement of the science and the fiction of robotics/AI. I am interested in why science uses fiction even as it marginalizes the literary imagination in discussions of a technological future, why the animal is so often problematically collapsed with the machine, and how the categories and narratives about robots and animals differently produce the human. Pursuing an interdisciplinary approach, I take seriously the borders between fiction and science and argue that the “ethical impulse” that emerges from a literary training in the imagination is useful preparation for thinking about new technologies.

Visiting Scholars
Tom Angier, Philosophy, University of Cape Town
My core interests lie in Aristotelian and Neo-Aristotelian ethical theory. While I have written on Aristotle’s ethics per se, I am also and increasingly interested in applying Aristotle’s ethics and metaphysics to current ethical debates. The kind of naturalism espoused by Aristotle affords an invaluable resource for contemporary reflection, even if, in the process, his insights and arguments must be reconfigured.

Postdoctoral Fellows
Elena Comay del Junco (Centre for Ethics Postdoctoral Fellow in Ethics), Committee on Social Thought & Department of Philosophy, University of Chicago
Igor Shoikhedbrod (Centre for Ethics Postdoctoral Fellow in Ethics of Artificial Intelligence), PhD, Political Science, University of Toronto
Igor’s research is principally concerned with the future of work and considerations of distributive justice in the face of increased automation and generalized reliance on intelligent machine learning. Igor’s broader research interests in the ethics of AI draw upon the rich nexus of political theory and critical political economy. Igor obtained his PhD at the University of Toronto in 2018, his M.A in Political Science from York University in 2011, and he also holds a B.A from the University of Toronto with a concentration in Ethics, Society, and Law. His doctoral thesis examined the relationship between rights discourse and economic inequality in capitalist democracies though a reconstruction of Karl Marx’s critique of classical liberalism. A revised version of Igor’s doctoral thesis is forthcoming with Palgrave Macmillan under the title of Revisiting Marx’s Critique of Liberalism: Rethinking Justice, Legality and Rights.
Doctoral Fellows in Ethics
Natasha Hay, PhD Candidate, Centre for Comparative Literature, University of Toronto
Natasha Hay is a doctoral candidate in Comparative Literature who is pursuing a disciplinary specialization in Philosophy and a collaborative program in Jewish Studies. Her doctoral
research is concerned with a constellation of concepts in the field of education that Walter Benjamin articulates in his reflections on the German youth movement. Her dissertation lays out a counter-pedagogical relation emergent in study as an ethical practice that helps to shape Benjamin’s historiographical method. Her secondary research interests include nineteenth- and twentieth-century German thought, French post-structuralism and deconstruction, and the relationship between literature and philosophy. Some research interests she is eager to explore at the C4E: historical changes in urban spaces and utopian imaginaries; the ethics of untranslatability and the geopolitics of translation; ethical modes of representing suffering and violence across image, text, and other media.
Emma McClure, PhD Candidate, Department of Philosophy, University of Toronto
My research explores the ethics of conversation. My most recent publication, “Theorizing a Spectrum of Aggression: Microaggressions, Creepiness, and Sexual Assault” (Pluralist, 2019) explains what is aggressive about verbal microaggressions. In my dissertation, I turn to the question of whether we are blameworthy for microaggressions. Traditionally, we only blame people when they intentionally cause harm, whereas microaggressions are often committed unintentionally and may only become noticeably harmful after numerous repetitions. I use legal theory to model how perpetrators could be liable for these unintentional and non-immediately damaging actions. Finally, I consider the under-explored role of microaffirmations—small supports that accumulate into very positive impacts when repeated over a lifetime. Privileged people receive these benefits constantly; marginalized people deserve the same supports. Please see my website (emma-mcclure.com) for more on my research and teaching in Feminist Ethics.

Ethics of AI Graduate Research Fellows
Mohamed Abdalla is a PhD student in the Natural Language Processing Group (Department of Computer Science) at the University of Toronto and a Vanier scholar, advised by Professor Frank Rudzicz and Professor Graeme Hirst. Affiliated with the Vector Institute for Artificial Intelligence, his research interests fall at the intersection of artificial intelligence and clinical medicine. A large portion of his work involves quantifying existing biases, and formalizing notions of fairness and other ethical principles in the context of clinical applications. He is also working to extend and deploy many of these approaches to other disciplines, with an ultimate goal of developing a cross-field generalizable framework.
Suzanne van Geuns is a third-year doctoral student in the Department for the Study of Religion. Suzanne’s doctoral research in the study of religion investigates how rightwing antifeminists instrumentalise the internet to uphold specific truths about men, women, and their differences. As an anthropologist of religion, Suzanne approaches the normative descriptively, asking what it feels like to use the internet in the aspiration to live by gender essentialist principles. She has a particular interest in how past visions for the future of internet technology – to which artificial intelligence was always key – inform its instrumentalisations today. At the Ethics of AI Lab, she will develop her work on ‘seduction’ forums catering to men and so-called biblical womanhood bloggers, using the lens of AI to surface how these online subcultures strive to ‘artificialise’ human social intelligence, aligning the self with the truth by becoming more like a computer in flawlessly acting on its commands.
VInyas Harish is a third-year MD/PhD student at the University of Toronto. He is a graduate of the Biomedical Computing program at Queen’s University, and has recently began his PhD in Clinical Epidemiology at the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation.

Rachel E. Cristy (Centre for Ethics Postdoctoral Fellow), PhD, Philosophy, Princeton University
Rachel’s research interests are in the history of late modern philosophy, beginning with Kant and tracing his influence through early neo-Kantianism to certain late 19th century figures who are not typically thought of as successors to Kant: Nietzsche and the American Pragmatists, particularly William James. She is especially interested in late modern philosophers’ attitudes toward science, including both epistemological views (on its methods, its limitations, what sort of philosophical foundation it has or needs) and ethical views (on the proper place of science in the life of individuals and societies). Her most recent work is on Nietzsche’s and James’s objections to scientism: the attitude that science is the most valuable human enterprise and can answer any question worth asking.
