Jonathan Lewis is Lecturer in Medical Law and Bioethics at the University of Manchester, recognized with the Research Staff of the Year Award in 2023. His work intersects bioethics, law, moral psychology, cognitive science, and health policy, with research on new biotechnologies, biomedical research ethics, and rights of vulnerable populations. He co-founded experimental bioethics (bioxphi), employing moral psychology and experimental philosophy methods to address bioethical questions.
Dr. Lewis's publications examine autonomy concepts, vulnerability in healthcare, human rights implications of drug policy, regulation of embryo models and organoids, and methodological foundations of bioethics. His co-authored article 'Racial Justice Requires Ending the War on Drugs' was among the top 10 most cited in The American Journal of Bioethics.
As Editor-in-Chief of Clinical Ethics and section editor for PhilPapers' Experimental Philosophy: Bioethics, he shapes scholarly discourse. His research on experimental jurisprudence investigates how ordinary people understand legal concepts, bridging empirical research and normative theory. Current projects examine relational norms for human-AI cooperation and conceptual foundations of personhood.
