Our disciplinary expertise covers an array of specialisms.
Dr Roger Clarke
Roger’s primary research interest is in epistemology. He is currently working on the connection between belief-contextualism and Sextus Empiricus's Pyrrhonian scepticism.
Dr Joseph Diekemper
Joseph's research focuses on the metaphysics of time and the metaphysics of persons. He is interested in the overlap between philosophy and theology with respect to these areas. He has begun a project on the metaphysics of theological anthropology. The goal of the project is to provide a theologically informed metaphysics of the human person.
Dr Joe Morrison
Joe works on topics in the philosophy of science (evidence, holism, scientific realism) and in naturalised epistemology (reasoning / inference, psychologism, methodological debates).
Dr Tom Walker
Dr Walker’s research is in applied ethics – both medical ethics and the ethics of new technologies. His current project is on the ethical obligations of healthcare professionals when treating patients with chronic illness. This is linked to two broader research interests: the ethical challenges of an ageing society, and improving public health.
Dr Jeremy Watkins
Much of Dr Watkins' research focuses on ethical questions arising from the wrongs of the past. He has examined the nature and value of forgiveness, particularly in deeply divided societies. He is currently working on the ethics of reparation.
