Pleased that an interview I gave in French in June was cited in the prominent French investigative journal #mediapart 🇫🇷🦠 Je suis contente d'être mentionnée dans un article de Mediapart sur le #microbe. mediapart.fr/journal/france…

Excited about going to the #AgHistorySoc meeting this week (albeit virtually)! Our roundtable, "Cultivating Little Things and Big Promises: Cellular Agriculture, Fermentation, and the Pasts of Protein Futures" is on at 1:30-3:00, Saturday, June 10.

Thanks to Nathan Hopson for the New Books Network (@newbooksnetwork.bsky.social) interview! It was great to have the opportunity to chat about some of my favorite themes (non-western science, "complementary science" [Chang], colonialism) in the book. megaphone.link/NSR6218886203

A proud achievement as a new mother this fall: I'm published in a poetry zine! The Scotland-based Coin-Operated Press run workshops and make collaborative zines. The callout was for haiku or haiga, and I developed these at The New Mothers' Writing Circle.

Pleased to see in print my review of Chris Otter's "Diet for a Large Planet" in Isis Journal, which was a fascinating account of the clash between the demand for cheap food in 🇬🇧 and global sustainability concerns journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/73…

A fascinating BBC feature linking contemporary Japanese fermentation tech, food waste, animal nutrition, and the circular economy. It cites me on the Japanese perspective on microbes as "living workers."
