Carel also teaches at the Bristol Medical School.^[2]

Her research interests include: philosophy of medicine, phenomenology, philosophy of death, epistemic injustice and health, illness in children, and film and philosophy. Carel is best-known for her work on the phenomenology of somatic illness, and has led AHRC-funded projects on concepts of health, illness, and disease (2009–11), a Leverhulme Trust-funded the lived experience of illness (2011–12), a British Academy Mid-Career Fellowship (2012–13)^[3] and recently completed a five-year Wellcome Trust Senior Investigator Award funded project, 'The Life of Breath'^[4] She employs film in teaching and has co-edited a volume entitled New Takes in Film-Philosophy.^[5]

In 2006, Carel was diagnosed with lymphangioleiomyomatosis, a very rare life-limiting lung disease, and much of her academic work reflects her own lived experiences as an ill person.^[6]
