A scholar of eighteenth-century France, I work at the intersections of cultural history, the history of science and medicine, and the history of women and gender. I published my first book, Sentimental Savants: Philosophical Families in Enlightenment France, with the University of Chicago Press in 2016. My current research examines how eighteenth-century French medical practitioners established and exercised their authority during an age of media revolution and colonial exploitation.
