I work on the history of science in Modern China. My research is motivated by the question of how “ordinary people” interact with science – both as an idea and a practice. I focus on science and nationalism, public discourse on science, and the intersections of scientific knowledge and daily life. I am currently revising my dissertation, “Making Science Popular: Readers, Nation, and the Universe in Chinese Popular Science Periodicals, 1933 – 1952” into a book manuscript. Additionally, I am interested in the gendered aspects of scientific labor in the People’s Republic of China, and in contemporary science dissemination on social media platforms.
