Honorary Research Fellow in Humanities and Social Sciences

I am a posthumanist researcher and Honorary Research Fellow in Humanities and Social Sciences at the Centre for the History of Science, Technology, and Medicine (CHSTM, University of Manchester). I am also a member of the research group 'Anthropology of Life' (Collège de France). Trained as a veterinary practitioner and epidemiologist, I was awarded, in 2020, a Wellcome Trust Research Fellowship in Humanities and Social Science to establish myself as one of the few interdisciplinary social scientists in the field of animal health and well-being. My research sits at the intersection of the environmental and medical humanities, sensory studies, and science and technology studies (STS) and draws on sensory methods and approaches from history, ethnography, and the arts. My work explores human relationships with non-human animals, particularly cows, pigs, and chickens.
