There's a paper in the nanoethics literature from a 1-3 years ago about the difficulties of picking out "humans" that I wanted to cite next to Bostrom & Sandberg (2011) in the question about extrapolating human values, but now I can't find it. I think the author was female. If anybody finds it before I do, please point me to it!

There's also a book chapter from the nanoethics literature that analyzes the biases at work in doing ethical philosophy for future technologies, ala Yudkowsky 2008b. I think that chapter also had a female author. I can't remember what that one is, either! It was not Roache (2008).
