Good news! 📣 I’m presenting at this year’s ICA Disability, Communication and Media preconference which invites PGRS to present their work in a collaborative environment, receive mentorship, and learn from established scholars in the field. I’m grateful to have applied for and secured this chance!

Hey Bluesky - I'm recruiting for my PhD research looking at how disability and intimacy is represented on Instagram. I am looking to speak to women with physical impairments to invite them to join the first stage of my research, a steering group. Please share far and wide!

My colleages and I are organising a panel at the RGS this summer - please share! CfP - Relentless injustice: trauma, exhaustion and researching zombie problems (or banging your head against a wall) We invite papers that consider the challenges, traumas & exhaustion of conducting research... (1/2)

Disability studies folks! I am hiring a summer project assistant! Fund is private so any graduate student studying critical race disability studies who can fulfill the responsibilities of the job can apply. Please circulate to your students and peers! docs.google.com/file/d/1VWnY...

This week my employer of 17 years English Heritage announced 200 jobs lost, and my Alma mater Cardiff Uni announced 400 jobs lost. The planning system that protects our heritage and provides thousands of archaeology jobs is at risk, and Higher Education is in free fall more generally #ThisIsFine

I’m still doing research into the experiences of disabled people looking for employment. I’d be grateful if you could share this survey with people it might be of interest to. The survey is at: cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... #Disability #AcademicSky Thank you

Really enjoyed my time presenting at Sheffield Hallam’s Disability Rights Forum today. A welcome reception and a wonderful space to be part of, finishing with a vibrant discussion of all things disability, sexuality and intimacy related - until next time!

I’m involved …. Why wouldn’t you give us a follow? 😉
