Katheryn Doran, associate professor of philosophy, gave a paper titled "Building Better People? Three Secular Arguments Against Germline Genetic Engineering," and Professor of Biology Jinnie Garrett presented the paper "Preventing the Emergence of Evil in the 'New Eugenics'" at the 10th Global Conference on Perspectives on Evil.
The March 18 session, in Salzburg, Austria, was called Biological Determinism and the Roots of Evil. Their interest in the ethics of genetic engineering in part grew out of their work together developing and teaching the Freaks sophomore seminar.
