Hello,
I’m Manon Lefèvre, an anthropologist completing my doctorate at Yale University.
My scholarship sits at the intersection of medical anthropology, science and technology studies, and the politics of reproduction.
In my dissertation research, I examine the cultural politics of lab-grown human embryos. My work follows the reproductive scientists who grow human embryos in IVF labs—within a landscape in which gestating and IVF embryos are increasingly legislated as unborn children.
