Ricky Price

Ricky Price serves as Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science and Legal Studies within the School of Arts and Sciences at St. John Fisher University. He maintains significant external affiliations as a member of the Climate Social Science Network and organizer for the Ann Snitow Prize.

His doctoral training in politics from the New School for Social Research forms the foundation for research examining power dynamics between bodily autonomy and state institutions. Key methodological approaches include new institutionalism, science and technology studies, and critical feminist/queer frameworks.

Research spans three interconnected domains: democratic processes (Congress, presidency, multilevel elections), justice-oriented policy (LGBTQ+ rights, reproductive freedom, civil rights), and planetary challenges (climate policy, environmental governance, public health systems). His HIV/AIDS and health policy publications demonstrate applied engagement with urgent social issues.

Dr. Price actively translates scholarship into public discourse through expert media commentary on Rochester-area elections. While specific grant details aren't provided, his Climate Social Science Network membership indicates collaborative research engagement. No current student advisees are listed in available materials, though his interdisciplinary approach would support students in political theory, policy analysis, and identity politics.
