Collaboratory

This first BFHSS Collaboratory will center on the theme of Racial Geographies of Health and Wellness. By centering on this theme, we hope to draw works that are putting BFHSS, geographies, and space in conversation together. We are looking for works exploring how the practices and modes of knowledge production of varying branches of the sciences (health, science, and medicine) continue to shape global, national, local, natural, cultural, and racial landscapes and vice versa. We are interested in works that articulate how a BFHSS lens contributes to new kinds of mappings or seeing and conceptualization of space and place.
