Work in Progress
I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies. I study history of medicine, science, and the environment. I enjoy doing fieldwork in western China, mainly the Upper Min River region in Sichuan province. I am currently writing a monograph on the life stories of medicine gatherers of Chinese medicines.

Writing log since May 2025. Late September: finished the first draft — then drifted “at sea” for a while. Lots of new project ideas surfaced, but none felt right to land on. Mid-October: serious (sort of) writing restarted amid a flurry of applications.| Sun | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
