About the series: The Waide Center for Applied Ethics Seminar Series is a forum for building community and advancing research in Applied Ethics. It encourages jargon-free and supportive discussions that will be accessible to participants with serious interest in applied ethics and who come from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds. Invited speakers in the series present a work-in-progress or recently published paper on topics relevant to applied ethics. The seminars aim to provide speakers with feedback on their current research projects. At least half of each meeting is devoted to Q&A and general discussion. Please contact the Director of the Waide Center for Applied Ethics, Gregg D. Caruso, for more information.
