Pandemics Reflected

Pandemics Reflected goes behind-the-scenes with anthropologists, writers, political scientists, journalists and artists – the people that perhaps wouldn’t come first to mind when thinking about pandemic scholarship – about how their research and lives entangled due to COVID-19. From death threats to burnout and new creative directions, expert voices were challenged and stimulated.

How have pandemics shaped our understanding of the world? Join medical anthropologist Dr Pauline Herbst in a series of conversations with scholars from a range of disciplines, to find out how COVID-19 is changing the culture of knowledge.
