Sara Santos received her undergraduate and MA degrees from the University of Lisbon. Her work focuses on posthumanism, biopolitics and ecocriticism in 21st century literature of the Global North and the Global South. In particular, her research examines the boundaries between human and nonhuman bodies, and the way in which contemporary narratives work to redefine the concept of the human through the intertwining of capital, technology and environment. She is a 2020 AHLSS Summer Research Fellow, as well as the recipient for the Babich Award for Excellence in Teaching. Her review of Rosi Braidotti's Posthuman Knowledge is forthcoming in the Journal of Posthuman Studies. Sara also studies rhetoric and pedagogy, holding a graduate certificate in Teaching Writing. In addition to teaching composition courses with SBU's Program in Writing and Rhetoric, she is also the Assistant Director of SBU's Writing Center.
