About Me:
I'm a medical anthropologist. My work focuses on risk, exposure and translational science. My dissertation, Toxic Relief: Science, Medicine and Uncertainty after Bhopal, looked at the relationship between mass chemical exposure, epidemiology, and clinical care. I'm currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Social Science & Environmental Health Research Institute at Northeastern, and a Visiting Scholar at Harvard University. My latest project is focussed on translational science and interdisciplinarity in the post-exposomic era, with a particular focus on the roles of Big Data and biomedical ontologies in the translation of experience.
