About

Jessica Morley is a leading voice in the ethical governance of artificial intelligence in healthcare. Her research critically examines how AI systems can be responsibly integrated into clinical and public health settings, focusing on the tensions between innovation, patient safety, and equity. Her most cited work, “The Debate on the Ethics of AI in Health Care: a Reconstruction and Critical Review” (2019), has garnered over 80 citations and stands as a foundational piece in the field. In it, Morley systematically reconstructs the fragmented ethical discourse surrounding medical AI, identifying key moral dilemmas—from algorithmic bias to informed consent—and proposing a structured framework for ethical deliberation. This contribution has shaped how researchers and policymakers approach AI deployment, moving the conversation from abstract principles to actionable governance. Morley’s work is widely referenced in health policy and digital ethics circles, and she is recognized for bridging technical AI development with robust ethical oversight. Her scholarship continues to influence how healthcare systems worldwide navigate the promise and peril of intelligent technologies.
