Anelis Kaiser Trujillo is working against the grain of her disciplines of neurosciences and psychology, doing work that is not always welcomed warmly, but is highly necessary to infuse those disciplines with more feminist critical thinking. Her innovative work is on sex/gender, taking also class, race, ethnicity into account in showing the fractured nature of genders and sexualities. Academically, she worked in various precarious positions in Germany and Switzerland.
She is one of the founders of the Network Neurogenderings: Critical Studies of the Sexed Brain (with Isabelle Dussage), since 2010, and still an active member of its steering committee. She has extensive teaching experience, is committed to changing the numbers of women working in academic STEM fields and thinks European Gender Studies has so much to learn from Latin American decolonial feminism.
Tackling the hegemonic neuroscience bastion for all of us, we are very grateful for her work on this.
