Dr Elisabeth Langmann

Dr. Elisabeth Langmann is a postdoctoral researcher in bioethics at the Institute of Ethics and History of Health in Society (IEHHS) at the University of Augsburg, Germany. Her research lies at the intersection of bioethics, public health, feminist theory, and social epistemology. She is particularly interested in marginalisation, epistemic injustice, ageism, ableism, and gendered inequalities in health. Her work combines conceptual, normative, and empirical approaches to examine how structural and epistemic forms of exclusion shape healthcare and public health. During her stay at the Ethox Centre, she will further develop the analysis of informal supporters as situated knowers of marginalisation and epistemic injustice in healthcare.
