A fellow philosopher wrote me that I’m the philosopher he disagrees with the most, and that he hasn’t read a single paper of mine he agrees with.
I suppose I won’t get a plaque for my office for this achievement, but it does show remarkable consistency.

Great workshop in Aarhus. Thanks Eli Feiring and Ben Davies for great discussions! Eli talked about non-attendance fees, Ben about basic needs and I presented about rare diseases and priority setting.

As a reviewer I really appreciate journals that notify me about their decisions. I also learn from reading how others evaluated the paper. #peerreview

Cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is central to health-care priority setting. But when does it unfairly disadvantage people with disabilities? Nielsen, Hallsson, and I tested participants' views in a vignette-based survey (N = 1100, UK). 🧵#bioethics #discrimination

Attended the annual CEPDISC conference on discrimination on Friday. Lydia Tsiakiri did an excellent job presenting our paper on differential treatment based on vaccination status. Thanks to the organisers. Great to see new and familiar faces!

When cities exclude the homeless, it is wrongful discrimination!
In @bjpols.bsky.social Knight and I argue that hostile design (anti-sleep benches, spikes on window ledges) should be understood as discriminatory, and wrong for the same reasons as more familiar forms of discrimination.
Very proud🥳

Such a joy to lecture medical students at Aarhus University today on the ethics of organ donation — from opt-out systems to priority for registered donors and even payment for organs. Fantastic questions and an inspiring discussion!
