About
Cecilia recently completed her PhD in Anthropology at the University of Michigan. Her dissertation was an anthropological study of nighttime breastfeeding in the United States as a morally complex site for the (re)production of personhood, kinship and capitalism. Drawing on two years of ethnographic research as well as literatures from sociocultural and biological anthropology, sociology, history, medicine and feminist studies, Cecilia examined the moral dilemmas that arise from cultural contradictions surrounding the embodied practices of breastfeeding and infant sleep.
Currently, Cecilia is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, where she is contributing her anthropological training to HIV-prevention research in Tanzania and other areas of the world.
