Philosophers of science have a critical role to play in analyzing technical scientific concepts underlying pressing ethical debates, including informed consent, scientific racism, and human genome editing. Growing awareness of a connection between philosophy of science and bioethics raises an important question: How would scholarship progress if philosophers of science engaged more deliberately with issues that inform bioethical debates? This symposium will demonstrate a variety of ways in which collaborations and cross-disciplinary conversations between bioethicists and philosophers of science can be mutually beneficial in the areas of genomics and genetics.
