  • The means and models of malaria eradication

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, D Valeeva•ARTICLE•History of the Human Sciences•2025•Referências: 6

    In the early 1960s, Tatjana Sergeevna Detinova, a preeminent Soviet entomologist, attempted to assist the WHO’s Global Malaria Eradication Program (GMEP) by offering training in the Polovodova method – an infamously exacting dissection method used to determine the physiological age of a female mosquito by examining structural changes in its ovary, and by extension, their disease carrying capacity. The efforts to deploy this technique to evaluate …

  • Tolerable Tests

    Open Access•A Street, Ann H Kelly•ARTICLE•Science Technology & Human Values•2025•Citada por: 1•Referências: 48

    The response to the 2014-2016 West African epidemic was a watershed for emergency research and innovation, forcing a shift in regulatory norms as evidentiary standards were pitted against humanitarian imperatives and biosecurity concerns. This article examines how those ethical and epistemic negotiations unfolded in practice through the development, testing, and use of novel tools for Ebola diagnosis with a focus on Sierra Leone. We track the pri…

  • The social lives of point-of-care tests in low- and middle-income countries

    Open Access•Janet Perkins, Clare Chandler et al.•ARTICLE•Health Policy and Planning•2024

    Point-of-care tests (POCTs) have become technological solutions for many global health challenges. This meta-ethnography examines what has been learned about the ‘social lives’ of POCTs from in-depth qualitative research, highlighting key social considerations for policymakers, funders, developers and users in the design, development and deployment of POCTs. We screened qualitative research examining POCTs in low- and middle-income countries and …

  • A pandemic of metrics

    Open Access•Vincanne Adams, Clare Chandler et al.•ARTICLE•Medical Anthropology Quarterly•2024•Citada por: 1•Referências: 54

    The COVID-19 pandemic prompted critical attention to the performative power of metrics. We suggest that the existential capacities of metrics as a means of pandemic living warrant further consideration. We describe how the COVID-19 pandemic that came into existence as a public health and political event could only have occurred because of the anticipatory metrical practices that were used to transform SARS-COV-2 into a matter of global health con…

  • Designing a leadership and management training curriculum for undergraduate health professions students

    Open Access•Oliver Johnson, Mohamed Bawoh et al.•ARTICLE•Global Public Health•2023

    Leadership by health professionals is key in any health system, but health leadership training programmes are varied in their conceptualisation, learning objectives, and design. This paper describes an undergraduate leadership and management module for health students at the University of Sierra Leone and provides lessons from the design process. Our methods included an initial scoping review and qualitative study, followed by a co-design process…

  • More-than-national and less-than-global

    Open Access•Nele Jensen, A Barry et al.•ARTICLE•Economy and Society•2023•Citada por: 8•Referências: 94

    The recent efforts to mount an R&D response to public health emergencies of international concern have led to the formation of what we term a biochemical infrastructure of vaccine development and production. In principle, this infrastructure is expected not only to curtail existing pandemics but also anticipate and contain yet-to-emerge future threats. Critically, by nature of its geographical distribution and technical modularity, that infrastru…

  • Exit, voice or neglect

    Open Access•Oliver Johnson, Foday Sahr et al.•ARTICLE•SSM - Qualitative Research in…•2022

    This paper presents a study from Sierra Leone that explored the experiences of doctors as they endeavored to improve the health care systems in which they worked. Twenty-eight interviews were conducted with doctors in Sierra Leone, complemented by long-standing experience of national health provision and research by the authors. Drawing on Hirschman's theory of ‘exit, voice and loyalty’, the paper's framework analysis elaborates the doctor's care…

  • Human preparedness

    Open Access•Shona J Lee, Eva Vernooij et al.•ARTICLE•Global Public Health•2022

    This paper examines health worker experiences in two areas of post-epidemic preparedness in Sierra Leone - vaccine trials and laboratory strengthening - to reflect on the place of people in current models of epidemic response. Drawing on ethnographic research and interviews with health workers in the aftermath of Ebola, it explores the hopes and expectations that interventions foster for frontline workers in under-resourced health systems, and de…

  • Humanitarian inversions

    Open Access•Clare Herrick, Ann H Kelly et al.•ARTICLE•Transactions of the Institute of…•2022•Citada por: 11•Referências: 118

    COVID-19 is a multi-spectral crisis that has added an acute layer over a panoply of complex emergencies across the world. In the process, it has not only exposed actually-existing emergencies, but also exacerbated them as the global gaze has turned inward. As a crisis, COVID-19 straddles and challenges the boundaries between humanitarianism, development and global health - the frames and categories through which emergencies are so often understoo…

  • Global Health, Accelerated

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, Javier Lezaun et al.•ARTICLE•Economy and Society•2022•Citada por: 7•Referências: 47

    A new paradigm of emergency R&D has transformed global health. Beginning with the 2014–2016 Ebola virus disease epidemic in West Africa, experimental product development has been propelled to the frontlines of outbreak response, radically compressing timelines and unsettling regulatory standards, biosecurity strategies and humanitarian protocols. This paper examines these emerging epistemic practices and ethical norms as they played out in the cr…

  • The Covid-19 pandemic underscores the need for an equity-focused global health agenda

    Open Access•N Jensen, Ann H Kelly et al.•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2021

    Over the past few months, COVID-19 has ravaged health systems and economies in countries across the world. While many would argue that a pandemic of respiratory disease was predictable, the systematic failures of the response came as a surprise. From the shortage of hospital beds and medical equipment to the gross insufficiencies in national surveillance systems, supply chains and laboratory capacity, COVID-19 has laid bare the health care limita…

    Open Access•Paul W Geissler, Ann H Kelly•ARTICLE•Sociology of power•2021

    The field hospital, being a transitional point between the unified and purified laboratory space and the diverse and unique spaces of the "field", is a controlled, but not clearly defined place where one can access nature and "attach" to it. As housing for visiting scientists, field stations are included both in the routine and rhythm of daily life, as well as in long cycles of living, dilapidation and restoration. This article examines the empir…

  • To bend without breaking

    Open Access•Oliver Johnson, Foday Sahr et al.•ARTICLE•Health Policy and Planning•2021

    Strong leadership capabilities are essential for effective health services, yet definitions of leadership remain contested. Despite the acknowledged contextual specificity of leadership styles, most leadership theories draw heavily from Western conceptualizations. This cultural bias may attenuate the effectiveness of programmes intended to transform healthcare practice in Sub-Saharan Africa, where few empirical studies on health leadership have b…

  • Interventions to strengthen the leadership capabilities of health professionals in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Open Access•Oliver Johnson, Kerrin Begg et al.•ARTICLE•Health Policy and Planning•2021

    Leadership is a critical component of a health system and may be particularly important in Sub-Saharan Africa, where clinicians take on significant management responsibilities. However, there has been little investment in strengthening leadership in this context, and evidence is limited on what leadership capabilities are most important or how effective different leadership development models are. This scoping review design used Arksey and O’Mall…

  • Imperfect diagnosis

    When the Zika virus burst onto the international scene in the second half of 2015, the development of diagnostic tools was seen as an urgent global health priority. Diagnostic capacity was restricted to a small number of reference laboratories, and none of the few available molecular or serological tests had been validated for extensive use in an outbreak setting. In the early weeks of the crisis, key funders stepped in to accelerate research and…

  • Uncertainty in times of medical emergency

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, Javier Lezaun et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2020•Citada por: 14•Referências: 51

    Uncertainty was a defining feature of the Brazilian Zika crisis of 2015-2016. The cluster of cases of neonatal microcephaly detected in the country's northeast in the second half of 2015, and the possibility that a new virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes was responsible for this new syndrome, created a deep sense of shock and confusion in Brazil and around the world. When in February 2016 the WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of Internatio…

  • Remembering Africanization

    Open Access•P W Geissler, René Gerrets et al.•ARTICLE•Africa•2020•Citada por: 2•Referências: 27

    The 'Africanization' of science after decolonization was replete with dreams. Claims to Africa's place in the high-modern world, expectations of national technological and economic progress, and individual dreams of scientific discovery, professional development and fulfilled careers drove scientific work and lives. The term Africanization, coined by the colonizers, reproduced colonial notions of race but also stimulated the imagination of mid-tw…

  • Unintended consequences of the 'bushmeat ban' in West Africa during the 2013-2016 Ebola virus disease epidemic

    Open Access•Jesse Bonwitt, Michael N Dawson et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2018•Citada por: 30•Referências: 25

    Following the 2013-2016 outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in West Africa, governments across the region imposed a ban on the hunting and consumption of meat from wild animals. This injunction was accompanied by public health messages emphasising the infectious potential of wild meat, or 'bushmeat.' Using qualitative methods, we examine the local reception and impact of these interventions. Fieldwork was focused in 9 villages in the Eastern an…

  • Shadowlands and dark corners

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, Almudena Marí Sáez•ARTICLE•Medicine Anthropology Theory•2018•Citada por: 8

    Viral haemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) persist in darkness. The pathogenicity of viruses like Lassa, Marburg, and Ebola is partly explained by their ability to survive on surfaces outside their infected hosts, provided they are not exposed to heat, disinfecting chemicals, or ultraviolet light. Taking these basic virological insights as our starting point, we seek to elaborate ethnographically the links between disease transmission and gradations of lum…

  • Introduction

    P Wenzel Geissler, Ann H Kelly et al.

    How are publics of protection and care defined in African cities today? The effects of globalization and neo-liberal policies on urban space are well documented. From London to São Paulo, denationalization, privatization, offshoring and cuts in state expenditure are creating enclaves and exclusions, resulting in fragmented, stratified social geographies (see Caldeira 2000; Ong 2006; Harvey 2006; Murray 2011). ‘Networked archipelagoes’, islands co…

  • Material Proximities and Hotspots

    Open Access•Hannah Brown, Ann H Kelly•ARTICLE•Medical Anthropology Quarterly•2014•Citada por: 60•Referências: 90

    This article outlines a research program for an anthropology of viral hemorrhagic fevers (collectively known as VHFs). It begins by reviewing the social science literature on Ebola, Marburg, and Lassa fevers and charting areas for future ethnographic attention. We theoretically elaborate the hotspot as a way of integrating analysis of the two routes of VHF infection: from animal reservoirs to humans and between humans. Drawing together recent ant…

  • Urban mosquitoes, situational publics, and the pursuit of interspecies separation in Dar es Salaam

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, Javier Lezaun•ARTICLE•American Ethnologist•2014•Citada por: 41•Referências: 42

    Recent work in anthropology points to the recognition of multispecies entanglements as the grounds for a more ethical politics. In this article, we examine efforts to control mosquitoes in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, as an example of the laborious tasks of disentanglement that characterize public health interventions. The mosquito surveillance and larval elimination practices of an urban malaria control program offer an opportunity to observe how ef…

    What are the epistemological and political contours of evidence today? This introduction to the special issue lays out key shifts in the contemporary politics of knowledge and describes the collective contribution of the six papers as an articulation of what we describe as a 'new empiricism', exploring how earlier historical appeals to evidence to defend political power and decision-making both chime with and differ from those of the contemporary…

    The social analysis of insects has challenged our concepts of sociability, intentionality and language, while investigations of their habitats have informed how we construct and manage public space. Including entomological expertise, insect knowledge has been integral to the expansion of empire, the emergence of secular science, and in the managerial revolution that linked technology to agricultural improvement. Reading insects as hosts, vectors …

  • Ebola vaccines, evidentiary charisma and the rise of global health emergency research

    The 2013-2016 West African Ebola outbreak was both a catastrophic public health disaster and a rare research opportunity. This paper analyses how the tensions between the humanitarian imperatives of disease control and the epistemic conventions of bioscientific inquiry played out in the accelerated development, testing and licensure of Ebola vaccines. Beginning with the epidemiological projections of the disease’s spread, the paper develops the n…

    This article examines three locations where entomologists engage in the experimental observation of mosquitoes: the insectary, the semifield station, and the outdoors. We approach each of these settings as creating a distinct mode of interiority, a particular room-space. This concept resets the investigative encounter in terms of an aesthetic of attention, and offers a counterpoint to the ideals of control and containment that dominate biosecurit…

    It is not surprising that anthropologists, being academics, should value knowledge. After all, an academic life is a vocation to generate data, to act as a critic in order to detect and eradicate error, and to transmit the state of the art to the next generation. This pursuit of knowledge entails an ethics: knowledge is the value that justifies all aspects of academic activity, whether it is desired as a means of promoting other goods (health, ha…

Including entomological expertise, insect knowledge has been integral to the expansion of empire, the emergence of secular science, and in the managerial revolution that linked technology to agricultural improvement. Reading insects as hosts, vectors …

  • Material Proximities and Hotspots

    Open Access•Hannah Brown, Ann H Kelly•ARTICLE•Medical Anthropology Quarterly•2014•Citada por: 60•Referências: 90

    This article outlines a research program for an anthropology of viral hemorrhagic fevers (collectively known as VHFs). It begins by reviewing the social science literature on Ebola, Marburg, and Lassa fevers and charting areas for future ethnographic attention. We theoretically elaborate the hotspot as a way of integrating analysis of the two routes of VHF infection: from animal reservoirs to humans and between humans. Drawing together recent ant…

  • Urban mosquitoes, situational publics, and the pursuit of interspecies separation in Dar es Salaam

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, Javier Lezaun•ARTICLE•American Ethnologist•2014•Citada por: 41•Referências: 42

    Recent work in anthropology points to the recognition of multispecies entanglements as the grounds for a more ethical politics. In this article, we examine efforts to control mosquitoes in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, as an example of the laborious tasks of disentanglement that characterize public health interventions. The mosquito surveillance and larval elimination practices of an urban malaria control program offer an opportunity to observe how ef…

    Lassa fever is a zoonotic hemorrhagic illness predominant in areas across Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Guinea, Liberia, and southern Mali. The reservoir of Lassa virus is the multimammate mouse (Mastomys natalensis), a highly commensal species in West Africa. Primary transmission to humans occurs through direct or indirect contact with rodent body fluids such as urine, feces, saliva, or blood. Our research draws together qualitative and quantitative me…

  • The publics of public health in Africa

    Open Access•Ann H Kelly, Hayley Macgregor et al.•ARTICLE•Critical Public Health•2016

    How do we understand the public character of public health in contemporary Africa? What are the parameters of community engagement in health care delivery, medical research and disease control programmes? To what extent is public health in Africa a project led by African Governments? Through what political processes and deliberative practices can African publics influence the priorities of research in health sciences and interventions which aim i…

    Open Access•P W Geissler, Ann H Kelly•ARTICLE•Social Studies of Science•2016•Citada por: 4•Referências: 28

    Located high in Tanzania's Usambara Mountains, Amani Hill Station has been a site of progressive scientific endeavours for over a century, pushing the boundaries of botanical, zoological and medical knowledge, and providing expertise for imperial expansion, colonial welfare, national progress and international development efforts. The station's heyday was from the 1950s to the 1970s, a period of global disease eradication campaigns and the 'Afric…

  • A home for science

    Open Access•P W Geissler, Ann H Kelly•ARTICLE•Social Studies of Science•2016•Citada por: 7•Referências: 25

    A 'halfway house' between the generic, purified space of the laboratory and the varied and particular spaces of the field, the field station is a controlled yet uncontained setting from which nature can be accessed and anchored. As living quarters for visiting scientists, field stations are also enmeshed in the routine and rhythms of everyday domestic life, and in longer cycles of habitation, wear, and repair. This introduction considers the empi…

    Across Africa today, as development activities animate novel forms of governance, new social actors are emerging, among them the volunteer. Yet, where work and resources are limited, volunteer practices have repercussions that raise contentious ethical issues. What has been the real impact of volunteers economically, politically and in society? The interdisciplinary experts in this collection examine the practices of volunteers - both internation…
