At the intersections of Anthropology and STS, she has investigated assisted reproductive technologies, political and religious movements, new forms of kinship, poverty and anonymity. Currently, she is rethinking problems of unrequited reciprocity in the context of object circulation under colonial rule and with post/colonial consequences and the history of object-extractivism.
