My research works with late-twentieth and twenty-first century literatures in English, and contributes to the emergent and exciting field of critical neurodiversity studies. Present research projects explore neurodivergence as queer articulations and dissidence in literary forms, with a particular interest in asociality and non-normative affect. I am also currently writing a monograph, developed out of my doctoral research, on neurodivergence, gender deviance and generic elasticity in contemporary literature.
My current and forthcoming publications are avaliable in Autism, TSQ, Neurodivergent Connection amongst other places.
More broadly, I am interested in critical medical humanities and disability justice scholarship, (neuro)queer theory, mad studies, affect theory, transfeminism and posthumanism.
I am a member of the leadership team for the Neurodivergent Humanities Network. This research network, currently funded by Wellcome, holds important events in critical neurodiversity studies and runs a safe and supportive mentorship scheme for neurodivergent researchers across all career stages.
