PhD, MIT I am a Professor in the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at King's College London, and currently serve as Head of Department. I am also President of the Society for Social Studies of Science (4S). My research explores feminist, antiracist, and postcolonial engagements with science, technology, and medicine. Broadly, I am engaged in ongoing research in three intersecting areas: racism and health, feminist theory and biomedicine, and social studies of pharmaceuticals. I am the author of three books:
