I’m very delighted to live in Kirkland house with my wife, Soha Bayoumi, the Resident Dean, and our daughter, Carmen. By day, I’m the Richmond Visiting Professor of Science and Technology Studies at Williams College, and the founding director of the Center for Black, Brown, and Queer Studies (BBQ+). I grew up in Cairo, Egypt and received my MD at Cairo University and then received my PhD in history of science at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes in Paris, France. I’m a historian and a filmmaker, and the founder and chairman of the board ofPinwheel Productions—a film production company dedicated to minority artists. By night (during the baseball season), I’m watching the Red Sox, reading sabermetrics and scouting reports. And on any given Sunday, it’s Patriots time! I’m a diehard Star Wars fan and there is always a new Sci Fi novel open on my kindle. Looking forward to meeting and knowing all of you.
