¹ó°ù²¹²Ôç´Ç¾±²õ±ð Baylis, Distinguished Research Professor, Emerita, is a philosopher whose innovative work in bioethics, at the intersection of policy and practice, has stretched the very boundaries of the field.  Her work challenges readers to think broadly and deeply about the direction of health, science and biotechnology. It aims to move the limits of mainstream bioethics and develop more effective ways to understand and tackle public policy challenges in Canada and abroad.

A public intellectual for the modern age, Baylis brings her ethical sensibilities, informed by best practices, theory and common sense, to a wide range of public issues. With a personal mantra to make the powerful care. 

Baylis is the recipient of numerous awards and accolades including most recently the 2022 Killam Prize (Humanities) and the 2023 Canada Council for the Arts Molson Prize in Humanities. She is a member of the Order of Canada and the Order of Nova Scotia, as well as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada and the International Science Council. She is President-Elect of the Royal Society of Canada (2025-2028).
