I have a new favourite heroine: Elizabeth Zott! I was guffawing on public transport this week reading this fantastic book. Unmissable, especially if you are a woman in science. Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus (her first book, written at age 65; so much to love)

I am horrified that the University of Kent is planning the closure of many excellent programmes, including Anthropology, and is proposing up to 58 redundancies among academic staff! This further destruction of UK centres of academic excellence is heartbreaking.

Excited to start a new chapter at UCL Anthropology. Looking forward to meeting new colleagues and students, and to immerse myself in the Bloomsbury vibe!
