Kara Wentworth

University of California, San Diego
Postdoctoral Scholar
San Diego, CA
Kara Wentworth is an interdisciplinary scholar whose work straddles anthropology, science and technology studies, communication and cultural studies.  Building on feminist engagements with science and technology, her work asks questions about the politics of knowledge and difference in more-than-human material worlds.  She uses a mix of ethnography and experimental video-based methods to understand how meaning and worlds are made in everyday practice. She is currently developing a book proposal based on her ethnography of slaughterhouse kill floors and conducting research for two new projects: “What is the future of meat?” and a food security research project focused on microbes, microbiomes, and microbial surveillance.
