Jon Shaffer’s Biography

I study global health organizations, social movements, and their struggles over scientific knowledge. I write about health injustice and fights for health equity.

I received my Ph.D. in Sociology from Boston University in August of 2022 and am currently a Hecht-Levi Postdoctoral Fellow in Global Infectious Disease Ethics at the Johns Hopkins University Berman Institute & the Wellcome Centre for Ethics and Humanities at the University of Oxford.
