Andrea´s research examines the entanglements between microbes, embodiment and inequalities. To date, her research has centred on (1) socio-cultural aspects of the human microbiome and immunology; and (2) feminist embodied approaches and decolonial methods to address and remedy health inequalities associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and chronic/recurrent infections. Andrea is also a Collaborating Professor of the Interuniversity Master’s Degree in Planetary Health (UOC-Pompeu i Fabra-ISGlobal). Her current multi-sited research studies the relationalities of gender, microbial biodiversity, and local health cultures as key to resurface the transgenerational knowledges-practices and embodied experiences of healing and their subsequent imprint on contemporary biomedicine, eco-social subjectivities and practices and the wellness industry.
