Professor Stephen Hinchliffe is a leading scholar in Human Geography at the University of Exeter, affiliated with the Department of Geography within the College of Life and Environmental Sciences. He is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences and has played key roles in major interdisciplinary initiatives, including the Wellcome Centre for Cultures and Environments of Health and the GW4 One Health and Antimicrobial Resistance network.
His research focuses on the complex interplay between science, society, and the environment, particularly in the areas of One Health, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), biosecurity, and human-animal relations. He employs approaches from Science and Technology Studies (STS) and political ecology to examine how health, disease, and environmental change are socially and materially constituted.
The available articles reflect a strong engagement with interdisciplinary themes, particularly at the intersection of health, geography, and social theory. His publications emphasize biopolitical frameworks, the social dimensions of disease, and the ethical implications of human-nonhuman interactions in environmental and health contexts.
