Professor Joanna Page: different ways of knowing (Un/knowing podcast Episode 1)
 
Welcome to the first ever 'Un/knowing' podcast by LEAP Lab, hosted by founding member Kevin Lim. One of our three themes, Un/knowing is where we explore the fuzzy boundary between what we know and what we don't.
 
In this episode we were honoured to have as our guest Professor Joanna Page, Director of CRASSH at the University of Cambridge. Sitting on her picnic mat in a woody spot near Lammas Land, we talked about different ways of knowing the world and how she became a Latin Americanist.
 
Joanna Page is Professor of Latin American Studies at the University of Cambridge, where she directs CRASSH, the Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities. Her research explores the relationship between science and culture, and she also has a keen interest in cetaceans and marine conservation.

The Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH) is an interdisciplinary research centre at the University of Cambridge.
Founded in 2001, CRASSH came into being as a way to create interdisciplinary dialogue across the University’s many faculties and departments in the arts, social sciences and humanities, as well as to build bridges with scientific subjects. It has now grown into one of the largest humanities institutes in the world and is a major presence in academic life in the UK. It serves at once to draw together disciplinary perspectives in Cambridge and to disseminate new ideas to audiences across Europe and beyond.
