How was the English wet nurse conceptualised and understood in the context of disease transmission in the eighteenth century?
Wet nurses were increasingly vilified in the second half of the eighteenth century as transmitters of syphilis and therefore significant threats to their nurslings, the structure o...
Creative Writing in a Black Feminist Context: Therapeutic Possibility
This project proposes that creative writing in a Black Feminist context uniquely helps engender an abolitionist mode of world-building largely absent from therapeutic discourse. Th...
High-resolution monitoring of marine vertebrates in changing polar oceans with eDNA
Climate change is particularly pronounced in the polar regions, precipitating widespread range shifts, invasions of new species and losses of others. These changes present signific...
