Dr. R Sánchez-Rivera is a Fellow in Interdisciplinary Gender Studies at the London School of Economics (LSE) and an Affiliated Lecturer in the Centre of Latin American Studies at the University of Cambridge. Prior to this they were a Research Fellow in the Study of Race and Anti-Racism in Gonville and Caius College at the University of Cambridge. Their research bridges gender studies, history of science and medicine and sociological theory, offering a diverse array of transnational perspectives on the critical studies of eugenics and ‘race’ science. Their first book titled “Slippery Eugenics: An Introduction to the Critical Studies of Race, Gender and Coloniality” (Sage, 2024) highlights the historical interconnectedness of eugenic ideas and practices globally, as well as how the legacies and continuations of eugenics are manifested through state policies and individual self-regulation. They have also published, both in Spanish and English, in a range of leading academic journals, including in the Journal of Historical Sociology, Sociology of Health and Illness, Bulletin of Latin American Research, Sociology, and Caribbean Studies.
