A Few Words About Me
I am a philosopher by training. I studied Philosophy at the National University of Córdoba and earned my PhD in the same discipline at Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf, Germany.
After spending three years in Rome, Italy, I settled in Athens, Greece in 2009, where I devote myself to teaching, writing, and research.
My academic areas of specialization are ethics, bioethics, and the history of philosophy. I collaborate as an external researcher on the project «Recognition, Interculturality, and Human Rights» at the Catholic University of Córdoba, Argentina.
In terms of teaching, I currently work as a professor of Bioethics at the following institutions: The Nursing Degree Program at Metropolitan College in Athens, Greece. The Master’s Program in Bioethics at the Faculty of Medical Sciences, National University of Córdoba, Argentina. The Faculty of Medicine at the same university.
I am also a member of the Academic Committee of the Master’s Program in Bioethics at UNC.
In recent years, I have also been engaged in translating philosophical works into Spanish.
Below you can find my CV, which includes my publications and the courses I have taught to date.
