The below slide document was created on a desktop registered to Sherry Loveless, a Georgetown University bioethics advocate for “non-human animals,” whose most recent paper with her occasional co-author Mr. Giordano, has been published in 2023 (Do You Mind? Toward Neurocentric Criteria for Assessing Cognitive Function Relevant to the Moral Regard and Treatment of Non-Human Organisms; James Giordano, Sherry E. Loveless; American Journal of Bioethics Neuroscience; Pp. 170-173; Vol. 14; Issue 2; April-June, 2023). The abstract for their  2014 animal-ethics paper opens with, “Neuroscience affords knowledge that can be leveraged in the ontological valuation of individuals, groups, and species” (Neuroethics, Painience, and Neurocentric Criteria for the Moral Treatment of Animals; Cambridge Quarterly of Healthcare Ethics; James Giordano, Sherry Loveless; Vol. 23; Issue 2; Pp. 163-172; 2014).
