Our research projects engage these questions along the 4 thematic axes: Viral Atmospheres, Mobility and Mutations, Bodies and Infection, Mistrust and Trust. The thematic axis Viral atmospheres explores individual and collective feelings to understand how epidemics (or pandemics) become social crisis. Mobility and Mutation attempts to connect anthropological analysis and molecular biological analysis of outbreaks to explore the circulation of viruses in damaged ecologies. Bodies and Infection explores central biosocial transformation made visible by newly emerging epidemics. Under the axis Trust and Mistrust, we ask how collective action enables social imaginaries of future health.
