Science, Medicine, and Anthropology
A collaborative website covering the intersections of medical anthropology, science and technology studies, cultural psychiatry, psychology and bioethics.

Emily Lim Rogers is a PhD candidate in the Program in American Studies at the Department of Social & Cultural Analysis at New York University and the administrator at the NYU Center for Disability Studies. Emily’s research is at the intersection of science, technology, and society (STS), medical anthropology, disability studies, and gender/sexuality studies. Emily studies the politics of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) in the United States. The research examines how chronically ill bodies and communities reckon with scientific uncertainty through the collective work of patient activism, the social life of symptoms, and the experience of exhaustion.
