Delighted to share that I'll be leading the AI & Relationships unit in OUP's new AI in Society series. I'll be finding or commissioning 15 interdisciplinary articles/year, so if you have relevant WiP you'd considering publishing with us, get in touch!

My first article in the field of #PublicHealth !

It provides a realist account of the liberal conception of legitimacy, and argues how realism helps reconcile liberal justifications and public health interventions.

With the COVID-19 pandemic upon us, and social distancing becoming a moral necessity, please spare a thought for all the people who will be essentially trapped in a home with violent and otherwise abusive partners and parents. For months.

Good to see my institute stands up for #HongKongStudents @ #HongKongProtesters. Students can send emergent enquiries to [email protected] (as announced @ https://t.co/wOTol000L5).

Wonder if academics struggling @ #HongKong would receive similar aids...

[Alvin Chen @AlvinChen19]

So good 😂😂😂

Really curious about what remarks Bernard Woolley would make about a dude trying to add energy to a dud...

[Alvin Chen @AlvinChen19]

Another in-depth & timely episode. Given what has happened yesterday @ Sha Tin, reflections on what is ‘really’ at stake on ‘all’ sides are more in need, with a 21.07 protest on sight...
