Dr. Curran received her PhD in Philosophy from Trinity Hall, University of Cambridge and MPhil in Philosophy from the University of Cambridge. Earlier, gained her BSc Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method at the London School of Economics.  During her time at Cambridge, Dr. Curran has also been a Research Assistant in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science, as well as a Global Priorities Fellow at the Forethought Foundation. 

In her doctoral work, Dr. Curran defends the moral reasons we have to do less than best, applying these reasons to a variety of practical contexts, including philanthropy, population-level healthcare, and longtermism.  At CPLB, she will be thinking among other things about the ways in which metaphysics might resolve or illuminate issues found in bioethics.
