Ludovica Lorusso is a philosopher of science who has written extensively about race in the past. Ludovica and I decided to work together to and combine Ludovica’s philosophy of science expertise and my ethics of sport expertise to tackle the issue of the race in sport genomics and concussion research.

There’s not much written about race in the philosophy and ethics of sport literature, and that’s a problem for a variety of reasons.
We encourage you to read our paper and welcome your comments and criticisms to take our research forward!

We would also like to express our gratitude to the participants of the joint conference European Association for Philosophy of Sport and British Philosophy of Sport Association which took place at KU Leuven in April 2023, and to the participants of the 2023/24 seminar series of the Research Center for Knowledge in Cognition of the University of Bologna for their invaluable feedback.
