Supervision

I am interested in a number of research areas, mostly focusing on issues relating to health, embodiment, sexuality, reproduction and biology.

I have co-supervised 5 PhD students to completion to date and all have passed with no or minor amendments:

Lin Wen-Yuan (2005) who worked on kidney dialysis in Taiwan;
Kaori Sasaki (2006) who worked on brain death and organ transplantation in Japan;
Ranjini C.R. (2006) who worked on health information systems in southern India;
Anne Rudolph (2009) whose thesis focussed on young lesbian, bi-sexual and queer women's understandings of sexually transmitted infections; and
Clare Hollowell (2010) who studied young women's experiences of fun.

I have seven current phD students:

Li-Wen Shih, who is studying reproductive technologies and genetic testing in Taiwan (Taiwanese funding)
Brigit Morris-Coulton, who is working on mental health recovery and arts practices (ESRC-funded)
Rebecca Fox, who is working on women with learning disabilities living in secure accomodation (ESRC-funded)
Kate McNicolas-Smith, who is working on young people and sex education (ESRC-funded)
Joann Wilkinon, who is researching reproductive biosensors (funded by Intel)
Oscar Maldonado, researching the HPV vaccine in Colombia, the US and the UK (Colombian government funding)
Ali Hanbury, also researching the HPV vaccine in the UK (ERC funded).

All of these are empirical research projects, using methods such as participant observation, interviewing, online methods and textual analysis. I am deeply interested in feminist and social theory and am an editor of a leading feminist journal, Feminist Theory. I am very keen to work with postgraduate students on these themes relating to feminist theory, embodiment and sexuality, either in Sociology or Women's Studies. Prospective students should feel free to contact me by email to discuss the possibility of studying at Lancaster.
