NYU Center for Bioethics

Listen to our Faculty member, Daniel Fogal, speak about his course Advanced Introduction to The Ethics of Technology in the latest episode of I AM GPH!

NEW 🎧 - EP183 Navigating the Ethics of Technology in Public Health with Dr. Daniel Fogal

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Daniel Fogal, Assistant Professor of Bioethics at NYU GPH, about his course Advanced Introduction to The Ethics of Technology. Dr. Fogal shares his journey from a philosophy undergraduate degree to joining the NYU Center for Bioethics, mapping how the discipline has expanded beyond traditional doctor-patient relationships and research ethics to address broader population-level challenges. We dive into complex global issues, including the allocation of scarce medical resources and the modern ethical implications brought on by the rise of social media and artificial intelligence self driving vehicles. Dr. Fogal discusses his passion for teaching applied, controversial issues in the classroom, explaining how he leverages the diverse perspectives of his students to help them think more clearly, carefully, and critically. This conversation highlights NYU GPH's unique interdisciplinary expertise and teaching excellence, showing how grounding public health issues in ethical frameworks equips students to navigate tomorrow's scientific and technological challenges.
