- Looking for a postdoc opportunity outside the UK/US? I'm happy to support up to two JSPS postdoc applicants for the coming round for two-year posts starting from Sep./Oct. 2026 onwards at UTokyo. The application to be submitted before the end of March. 1/n

- #NACBS at Montreal has been wonderful. I presented here for the first time. Really useful feedback and stimulating panels across the entire program. The presidential address on J.S. Mill's 'family life' was a real treat. Looking forward to coming back to it again.

- 東京カレッジGHCでのChie Ikeyaさんのブックトーク、とても面白かった。 InterAsian intimacies across race, religion, and colonialism (2024)についてで、本の一部をご本人が読み上げて解説を加えるというスタイルだった。小説などではよくある手法だけれど、研究書の文脈ではとても新鮮に感じた。

- Hello colleagues! I'll be on sabbatical, and plan to be in London / Amsterdam between October 2025 and September 2026. Please let me know if there are places where I can share my ongoing research / advocacy work with you. I'd love to see if I can come and see my old friends and meet new ones.
