Caterina Scaramelli is a Senior Lecturer in the department of Earth & Environment at Boston University. She holds a 2016 PhD from MIT's History, Anthropology, and STS program. Her research asks how and why communities and individuals undertake projects of environmental stewardships, and the political stakes, effects, and multispecies entanglements of these projects. Her monograph, "How to Make a Wetland: Water and Moral Ecology in Turkey" was published by Stanford University Press in 2021. She is currently conducting research on the ecological politics and poetics of seed varietal preservation.
