I am a researcher in the History of Chinese medicine. My main research explores the social and cultural aspects of bodily practices in pre-modern China. I received a PhD in 2018 from University College London, UK for my investigation into the institutionalisation of therapeutic exercise in Sui China (581–618 CE). One of my passions is to promote the use of Chinese therapeutic exercises known as daoyin (lit. guiding and pulling) by people today, particularly in the English-speaking world. Another ambition of mine is to translate Chinese medical and yangsheng (nourishing life) self-cultivation texts into English. I have published a book entitled ‘Exercise Prescription in Sui China’ and various academic articles related to the history of Chinese medicine. My next book project is about Chinese Horse Medicine.
