Carly B Boxer is the Nancy and Robert J Carney Postdoctoral Fellow in Medieval Art and Architecture at Rice University in Houston, Texas. Boxer is a historian of medieval art whose work centres on the connections between medieval image-making practices and period ideas about vision, knowledge, and the capacity of images to structure and guide thought. Boxer’s current book project analyses manuscripts related to medicine, health and healing made in late-medieval England to propose that images in these books not only taught their readers how to perform surgical procedures or produce medicines, but also trained readers in how the human body ought to look, and how it should be looked at.

Johanna is Senior Curator of Anthropology at the Horniman Museum and Gardens, and Lecturer in Anthropology at Goldsmiths, University of London. Her research focuses on the different ways in which nations, institutions and individuals navigate ethical borderlands surrounding the ways in which colonialism is both remembered and structurally embedded in the present. Her most recent work explores archives and collections relating to the end of the British Empire in Africa, including the relationships between science, technology and the imagining of decolonial futures. She is fascinated by the colonial history and inheritance of milk, and the impact of this on global dairy consumption in the present.
