  Biography

 

 

I am a medical ethicist (currently Hon. Senior Lecturer in Medical Ethics and Law at King's College London) and a barrister at 12 King's Bench Walk Chambers, London.

As well as teaching clinicians and medical students, I co-direct Imperial College's annual Applied Clinical Ethics course.

.

I am a columnist for the British Medical Journal ('Ethics Man') and a regular contributor to the BBC. 

When not in court, I give regular talks on medical ethics, both in the UK and abroad, and regularly publish in academic and popular outlets (some of my articles are available online). For more details on my lecturing topics and availability, please see this page.   

I have sat on various committees, including those of the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Justice, and the Royal College of Surgeons.

My research interests are broad, and include the doctor-patient relationship, truth-telling in medicine, surgical ethics, military and disaster medicine, medical education, publication ethics, and the ethics of end-of-life care

My latest book - "Doing Clinical Ethics" was published by Springer in 2012.  It has recently been reviewed by the Medical Protection Society (here) and the Ministry of Ethics website (here).  A pre-publication copy of the book is available at no charge in the 'Publications' section of this website.

Hobbies include close-up magic, chess, most sports, French literature, and playing the piano.

Please feel free to contact me about any of the above.
