Biography
Presenting Experiments in Access Pedagogy
Niv Karthikeyan is a graduate student in the History of Science & Medicine, and Ethnicity, Race & Migration programs at Yale. She researches how pain became medicalized and datafied in the United States - intimately shaping how the pain of some, particularly women of color, gets recognized (or not) and treated (or not) by medical professionals and historians, alike. She is currently learning how to be a care-full teacher, and is experimenting with what radical access can look like in the space of the college classroom. It is giving her a lot of joy.
