SUPRIYA SUBRAMANI


My research interests lie at the intersection of emotions, healthcare ethics and behaviour. I employ qualitative methodology to explore the moral subjectivities of individuals. As part of my research, I study how healthcare is shaped by ideas, social categories, experiences, identities, and relationships.


My ongoing projects are concerned with how emotions, moral epistemology and everyday interactions influence one’s moral self; and how power is negotiated and challenged by individuals (patients; immigrants) in interpersonal interactions and institutions, particularly in healthcare settings.
