I gained a PhD in Geography from the University of Cambridge. My work is at the intersection of historical, political and medical themes in Geography. My 2009 book, Geopolitics and Empire, won the Murchison Award from the Royal Geographical Society as the most significant contribution to geographical scholarship that year. I am currently working on the cultural politics of AIDS for a book to be called Making Space for AIDS. Distinguished Historical Geographer at the Association of American Geographers Conference, 2015.
