Very excited about our research colloquium this fall. Come and join us when you can!

[Yi-Tang Lin @[email protected] @YiTangL1]

I have been asked frequently regarding how to do research using @WHO archives. Here are my thoughts on UN digital archives and being aware of their potential lacunae. Many thanks to Wen-Hua Kuo, Jaehwan Hyun for the invite !

A new review of Statistics and the Language of Global Health is out @EastsJournal. Huge thanks to Dr. Nott!

"the remarkable richness of Lin’s material and the clarity of her presentation provide the historical foundations for the further theorization of statistics in medicine"

[Yi-Tang Lin @[email protected] @YiTangL1]

Dr. Nott highlights my attempt to bridge the history of quantification with the anthropological work on global health. His comment, "If the language of statistics is not universally understood, even by its adherents, then perhaps it is something else entirely," made me smile.

Now that the trip to Sierra Leone is booked, I am happily returning to my class preparation cave. Next semester à la carte : BA level - Food history between East Asia and Africa; MA level - Knowledge flows in 20th-century East Asia @uzh_en history department

[Yi-Tang Lin @[email protected] @YiTangL1]

A momento of how we started. My @snsf_ch project #rice between #PacificAsia and #WestAfrica just had its launch meeting. A luxury of having specialists of #histSTM #geography #Anthro discussing how rice on both sides were distinct yet connected.
