Ron Barrett is an Assistant Professor of Medical Anthropology at Macalester College. His research concerns the social aspects of infectious diseases, with an ethnographic focus on northern and western India. His work on the biosocial aspects of leprosy and other socially stigmatized diseases can be found in, Aghor Medicine: Pollution, Death, ad Healing in Northern India (University of California Press), which was recently awarded the Wellcome Medal for Medical Anthropology by the Royal Anthropological Institute. His currently the primary investigator for an NSF-sponsored research on the relationship between social support networks and health-seeking for influenza-like illnesses in a western Indian slum community.

Molly Zuckerman is a Professor in the Department of Anthropology and Middle Eastern Cultures (AMEC) at Mississippi State University. Her research interests include Bioarchaeology, Paleopathology, Paleoepidemiology, and Biocultural Anthropology. Within these domains, she is broadly interested in the biosocial determinants of health inequalities and disease experiences within past populations.

Matt Dudgeon is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Emory School of Medicine and Associated Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at Emory University. His research has focused on the intersection of health and culture. He currently participates in research on determinants of antiretroviral failure in South Africa, a cross-national comparison of determinants of vaccine acceptance, internal medicine resident simulation training, and hospital-based ethnography of healthcare provider experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The late George J. Armelagos was Goodrich C. White Professor of Anthropology at Emory University. His research interests concerned the paleopathology and evolution of diet and disease in prehistoric human populations. His research has involved the osteological and pathological analysis of mummified and skeletal populations from North Africa and North America, tracing health changes associated with the Neolithic transition to sedentism and agriculture. He has also published osteopathic and phylogenetic evidence in support of the New World origin of syphilis. Professor Armelagos is the former president of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists (AAPA). He is a recipient of the Franz Boas Award (American Anthropological Association), the Charles Darwin Award (AAPA), and the Viking Medal (Wenner Gren Foundation).
