Students on the Philosophy research programme receive supervision from academic staff with a long-standing commitment to excellence and diversity in research, who work at the forefront of pioneering research that orients towards moral and political philosophy, philosophy of mind and psychology, and the intersections between these areas. Within moral and political philosophy, we have expanded our concentration of expertise on Nietzsche. Work in applied ethics has continued in the area of health and been extended to include the ethics of sport and of biobanking and nutrigenomics. Research in philosophy of mind and psychology has grown to include interdisciplinary publications on the nature of perception and critical analysis of the conceptual framework underpinning the science of consciousness.
