I'm a New Zealand philosopher working on ethical issues arising out of the application of new technologies - genetic, cybernetic etc - to human beings.   The issue that has been of obsessive interest to me recently is human enhancement. A variety of technologies promise to enhance human beings. Now is the time to think critically about how we should use them.  

I work at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand.  The city of Wellington is a thoroughly excellent place to live, think, and work.  You might detect the effects of high quality Wellington coffee in the photo to the left.
