Dr. Nicolae Morar Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Environmental StudiesUniversity Of Oregon

DR. MORAR is an applied ethicist whose research interests are at the intersection of biology, ecology, ethics, and biopolitics. He received his B.A. and M.A. in philosophy from Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3 in France and has recently earned his Ph.D. in philosophy from Purdue University. He is coediting a book titled New Directions in Biopower: Ethics and Politics in the Twenty-First Century.

Recent discoveries regarding the sheer number and diversity of micro-organisms on and inside each of us are now being joined by sophisticated studies revealing that these micro-organisms play startling roles in determining who we are as individuals. Our microbiome affects our health, behavior and thinking. Dr. Morar will discuss how these recent discoveries present us with a real challenge of who we are as human beings. He will talk about how this alters the most common conceptions of health and disease and the host of legal and ethical issues that have come with it.
