#Solidarity with all who are striking at UK universities today. I can’t be there on the picket line this time, but here’s a throwback with amazing colleagues from the last #strike. To paraphrase, I can’t believe we’re still protesting this shit. #histodons
Had such a great #HSS2022, sad I had to leave early and miss the festivities with the amazing prize winners tonight (and also a parade???). Tipsy Santa has made up for a lot of it though (shout out to Gabriela Soto Laveaga for the photo!)

#introduction: historian of science, medicine, and technology, writing a book about #emotions in the history of Japanese #robotics. Interested in #DesignBias, #ScientificTranslation #ImmigrantScientists.

Hobbies include #EdibleLandscaping #Cat training and #pumpkin carving.
