Transnational Information Systems

How do we talk about news and politics across generations and languages within Asian diasporic communities? This research study examines mis/disinformation in transnational, intergenerational, and multilingual communications networks - specifically within Asian diasporas. In this project, we aim to learn more about how personal histories of migration connect with political engagement and media use by co-creating methods and processes for intergenerational conversations. We invite self-identified Asian Americans who grew up in the U.S. to hold one-on-one conversations about news, social media use, and personal history with a family member and/or close friends from a previous generation who may use communications platforms, such as WhatsApp, WeChat, Kakao, and Line, and Asian language media outlets, including newspapers and news shows.

iSTAT Serum Biomarker Study

Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase isozyme L1 (UCHL-1), are a protein and enzyme that are released in your body following injury to your neurons - specifically following a head injury. The measurement of these molecules has shown to have predictive value for potential complications related to head injuries (e.g. bleeding). This study seeks to determine if GFAP and UCHL-1 released by your body following a head injury can be used to predict the likelihood of such complications.

Baked In: Women's Role in Curating and Creating Family Culture Through Culinary Performance

My dissertation, Baked In: Women's Role in Curating and Creating Family Culture Through Culinary Performance, works from the central assumption that a decent part of communal memory includes some aspect of food, and particularly for many families, those memories are tied to the bodies of the women who hold the recipes or knowledge of how to make those dishes. My project engages my own family's food traditions through interviews, participant observation, and personal narrative to explore the ways that families writ large and women in particular work to build a sense of community culture through food and the stories surrounding that food. Whether dealing with memory that lives within the body or within narrative, food is a bold, embodied performance of self and community identity.
