Tomi Francis is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy and the Centre for Biomedical Ethics at the National University of Singapore. He works in moral philosophy, decision theory, and especially in their intersection: moral decision-making under risk. He is particularly interested in our obligations towards future generations; at the moment, that mostly means population ethics and interpersonal aggregation. He also works on the ethics of artificial intelligence.

Before joining NUS in 2026, he was a Senior Researcher in Philosophy at the University of Fribourg, and before that a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Global Priorities Institute, University of Oxford. He completed his DPhil in Philosophy at St John’s College, Oxford, in 2022. He also holds a BPhil in philosophy from St Catherine’s College, Oxford and a BSc in Mathematics and Philosophy from the University of Warwick.
