James Fletcher

James Fletcher is an Honorary Research Fellow in Sociology, specializing in interdisciplinary research at the intersection of gerontology, dementia, and cognitive studies. His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to health and well-being (SDG 3) and sustainable cities (SDG 11), focusing on aging populations and societal challenges.

Research interests include the sociological implications of Alzheimer's disease, biopolitical frameworks in healthcare, and eco-cognitive approaches to aging. He explores materialist theories to bridge gaps between clinical practices and critical social perspectives.

Recent publications analyze ontological turns in personal life sociology, dementia governance, and post-human ecologies as enhancement technologies. His work has been widely read (e.g., 22 Mendeley readers for 'Cognitivism ageing') and referenced in media platforms like X and Bluesky.
