Ros Malcolm is a social anthropologist interested in the stories we tell about bodies and their substances, selves, personhood, kinship, and relations. Her work to date has explored autism, embodied empathy, stress, and more-than-human sociality and communication in the context of animal-assisted therapies (see Sensing Autism, University of Minnesota Press, forthcoming) and the social lives of hormones (see Hormonal Theory, 2024, Bloomsbury). At Durham University she co-leads the Hormones Hub within the Department of Anthropology. She is also co-lead of the Gender, Affective Injustice, and Autism (GAIA) project, and the Gender, Affective Injustice, and Health research strand at the Institute for Medical Humanities.
