TEACHING INTERESTS

Supervision:
I welcome enquiries from prospective Masters and PhD students with interests in Science and Technology Studies (STS) and medical and environmental anthropology. While I am open to all enquiries aligned with my interests, I am currently particularly keen to support student research on:

  • Toxicity and poisons 
  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalopathy: Patients' experiences and/or knowledge production around CFS/ME
  • Human/Dog/Kiwi relations
  • Local hunting cultures

Students who are interested in working on one of these topics should get in touch to discuss what these projects might look like. Students who already have a topic of their own in mind should send through a research proposal so that I can gauge whether that is something I can supervise.
