Delighted to have my schedule set for the @rsaorg.bsky.social meeting in February. Looking forward to the first of two sessions on "Medicine and Science in the Early Modern Pacific." My paper will be examining evidence for leprosy's global dissemination 1000s of years prior to European colonialism.
