Courses I teach:  

I'm a cultural and medical anthropologist whose courses include ethnography of Japan and East Asia, medical anthropology, disability studies, culture and aging (cultural gerontology), the anthropology of biomedicine, and the history of anthropological theory.

Brigid E. Vance's research focuses on the intellectual and cultural history of dreams and dream divination in late Ming China.

Born and bred in southeastern Wisconsin, I've spent my life serving, first in the US Air Force and then as a teacher.
