I’ve barely gotten home from the 2026 Renaissance Society of America conference in San Francisco, and I’m already on to the next thing! Writing about “The Neurotrans Method of Andreas Vesalius” for the “Rethinking bodyminds 1200-1700” conference at UC Riverside. I’m especially excited to see Olivia Henderson, Bradley Irish, Bellee Jones-Pierce, and Lindsey Row-Heyvald, who I haven’t seen in a while.

And love and gratitude to Simone Chess, Colby Gordon, and Sawyer Kemp for their continued work making early modern trans studies such a vibrant and welcoming field! And to Carla Mazzio for the herculean task of organizing!
