Shannon Lambert is a BOF-funded postdoctoral researcher at Ghent University. She works at the intersection of literature and science, focusing on topics like science and narrative, emotion and the environment, and nonhuman animals literature. She is the author of Science and Affect in Contemporary Literature: Bodies of Knowledge (Bloomsbury, 2024), a monograph which explores how, in contemporary literature, emotions like desire, suffering, anxiety, and joy shape scientific persons, practices, and products. Beyond this, she is interested in questions of epistemic justice, scientific communication, and creative ways of engaging with science.
