For my final bioethics project, I designed and produced an educational Instagram reel that critically examined the moral permissibility of using animals in biomedical research. I directed peers in dramatized dialogue and integrated philosophical frameworks such as speciesism, equal moral status theory, and Carl Cohen’s argument on moral community. I also analyzed the Russell & Birch 3R’s (Refinement, Reduction, Replacement) as a guiding principle for ethical research, incorporating case studies such as the University of Glasgow’s Scent No. M, which pioneers biotech alternatives to animal-based testing.
The project demonstrates my ability to translate complex ethical debates into accessible formats, combining research, storytelling, and digital media to engage a broader audience.
In this video, I explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing fertility care — making IVF smarter, more precise, and more accessible. I break down how tools like Life Whisperer and CHLOE EQ are using deep learning to analyze embryo development and predict which ones are most likely to lead to a successful pregnancy. It’s a game-changer for patients and clinicians alike, cutting down on failed cycles, emotional stress, and healthcare inequities — and it shows just how powerful tech can be when it’s built for hope.
