She serves as Director of Studies in Modern and Medieval Languages at Robinson College and Director of the Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH).
Her research focuses on the relationship between science and culture in Latin America, with particular emphasis on literature, film, graphic fiction, and visual arts from Argentina, Chile, and Brazil. Her work explores intersections of memory, modernity, capitalism, posthumanism, new materialism, decoloniality, and environmental thought in Latin American contexts.
Professor Page's publications reveal a consistent trajectory examining how scientific concepts inform cultural production in Latin America, with recent work focusing on decolonial approaches to science in art and ecological thought. Her scholarship bridges the humanities and sciences, challenging Western epistemological frameworks while highlighting Latin American contributions to global knowledge systems.
