Hi, I'm Anna Puzio
My research areas include anthropology of technology, ethics of technology, and environmental ethics. I studied Catholic theology, German studies, and philosophy in Münster and Munich, Germany. I completed my doctoral studies in an interdisciplinary doctoral program at the Munich School of Philosophy, focusing on the anthropology of transhumanism. After working in various cities such as Münster, Munich, Frankfurt am Main, Vienna, and Oxford, I am currently based at the Universität Twente, working within the nationwide ESDiT Research Programme (Ethics of Socially Disruptive Technologies).
