Join us for an Online Salon with James A. Trostle //
"A Social Diagnosis and Prognosis for COVID-19" //
Tuesday, June 15, 2:00 - 3:00 p.m. MDT

In an SAR online salon, James A. Trostle, the Scott M. Johnson ’97 Distinguished Professor of Anthropology, Trinity College (Hartford, CT), will consider the social dimensions of COVID-19 and their relationship to the pandemic’s epidemiological characteristics. Among the issues he will consider are the pandemic’s likely long-term social effects and changing attitudes toward the risk of infection.

Can we count what counts? What do masks mean? How does this novel coronavirus create and reveal our mortality?

James Trostle’s areas of expertise include sociocultural perspectives on epidemics, local understandings of risk, and strategies for reconciling policy and practice. He served as a research associate at the Harvard Institute for International Development for seven years prior to his appointment at Trinity College. He was a Weatherhead Resident Scholar at SAR in 2009-2010 and served two terms on SAR’s board of directors. Among his many publications is the book Epidemiology and Culture (Cambridge University Press, 2005).

This online event is free and open to the public. Register here.
Registration is required to receive link to participate.

We hope you will consider making a suggest donation at any level to help us continue to offer remote programs like this one.
