Welcome! My name is Shireen. I am a historian and artist living in Chicago.
I work on the history of science, medicine, and culture, and bring collaborative, embodied and artistic research methods to my work. I teach in university and prison contexts, and have learned immensely from students in both.
I have explored my scholarly interests through sound, moving image, and movement research, for example, through workshops for people to explore the history of humoral medicine through improvised movement.
