but a few scenes from day 1 of #agecaregraz2023 conference, featuring the opening keynote by Joan Tronto (!!!) and the “lines of help” exhibition about 24/7 carers. #gerotwitter
Day 3 of #agecaregraz2023: I felt quite spoiled listening to @AmeliaDefalco share how thinking of more than human relations can prompt us to rethink our approaches to aging and care | @Posthumancare
My latest book, Curious Kin in Fictions of Posthuman Care, will be published soon. It's about more-than-human care in recent recent literature, film, and television. I've been working on it for quite a few years and its nice to have it out in the world.

I was sorry to miss this launch event, but great to see @Posthumancare featured in the @UoLSSI co-production research toolkit. A great resource for anyone looking to develop interdisciplinary collaborations. @LeedsUniEnglish
It was a pleasure to put this special issue on “Affective Technotouch” together with @lunadolezal. Wonderful to see our introduction is online now. The complete issue will be available soon.
