Her research focuses on the cultural and social dynamics of Greeks under the Roman Empire, with emphasis on gender, religion, self-performance, and power. She has authored influential works such as Making Men: Sophists and Self-Presentation in Ancient Rome (2008) and explored topics like Galen’s anatomical displays and the cultural identity of Herodes Atticus. Currently, she is developing a book project analyzing a second-century CE imaginary disease linked to bodily transformation. She no longer teaches or advises students.
Her research subfields include Greek language and literature, with interdisciplinary engagement in cultural history and identity studies.
