Research Interests:<p>My driving research interest is ontological politics in zones of encounter between religion and science, indigenous healing systems and biomedicine, and anthropology and its others. I am especially interested in social phenomena that destabilize modern empirical categories of thought, analysis, and experience. For example: &nbsp;gestational surrogacy (mothers who are not mothers), spirit possession and religious healing (bodies that are multiply inhabited), agential nature (for example mountains that "hear" humans) and virgin births (conceptions that are not biological sex). &nbsp;My earlier work concerned epistemologies of embodiment in a U.S. gestational surrogacy arrangement. &nbsp;My current book project,&nbsp;<em>Virgin Birth in South India: Ontology in the Borderlands of Old and New Reproductive Technologies,&nbsp;</em>experiments with how to interpret the virgin birth claims of the women devotees of a South India god who has the paradoxical reputation of causing and curing infertility both. &nbsp;Considered alongside the arrival of the "new" reproductive technologies in Tamil Nadu and quickly came to code the modernity of the region, I argue that to encounter these virgin birth claims on their own terms, interpretation must be disengaged from the legacies of 19th century social thought in which the social and the biological came together in a ferociously positivist and colonialist political project that leaves little to no room for thinking about the facts of life outside of it. &nbsp;My future research will consider the ontological politics of agential nature, that is, claims that nature, like the South India god Paandi, empirically "responds" to humans.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
Scholarly Keywords:<p>Critical medical anthropology, philosophical anthropology, feminist science studies, political ontology, materiality and embodiment, nature-culture debates,&nbsp;reproductive technolgies, incommensurable religious phenomena,&nbsp;visual anthropology, feminist and experimental ethnography.</p>

Research Interests:I explore how plants can be used to reconstruct ancient environments, and the (paleo-) physiological underpinnings behind these plant-environment relationships. Recent and current projects include the reconstruction of early Paleogene and middle Miocene atmospheric carbon dioxide levels from the stomatal distributions in plant leaves, and the development of mechanistically-grounded proxies for climate and leaf ecology from the size and shape of fossil leaves. I also compile Phanerozoic carbon dioxide records and investigate the strength of carbon dioxide-temperature coupling over multi-million-year timescales.
