AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In this issue of Science Write Now, launching (finally) alongside a brand new website, we’re excited to share the work of writers and scientists engaging with concepts of migration. These works examine the movement of bodies and objects - human and nonhuman, living and non-living - and the future of migration on an increasingly unliveable planet. Importantly, in an age where climate-induced migration is beginning to be framed as an issue that may affect us all, these works stay with the uneven vulnerabilities of climate migration and the ongoing histories of forced migration brought about by colonisation and global capitalism.'  (Publication summary)

Alma Mater : On Body Donation, Cell Migration and Morphogenesis, Bianca Millroy , single work essay

'We gather around the hospital bed in late December 2022 where my Aunty Gail lies, brittle but accepting of the terms on which the cells of her body will soon embark on their mass migration from life to death. Gail is my mother’s sister and the eldest of five. For decades now, her body has been under siege. Cancer has claimed sovereignty over her cells, first in the form of breast tumours, then spreading, node to node. Now, her diagnosis is terminal, her days and breaths numbered. Her body is withering, curling up, transforming.' (Introduction)
