Welcome to 2020-2021!

ASA Section on Body and Embodiment Chair
2020
As I begin serving as Chair of the ASA Section on Sociology of Body & Embodiment, I want to publicly thank Mary Nell Trautner (outgoing Chair) and Krystale Littlejohn (ongoing Secretary/Treasurer) for all of their leadership and guidance in making sure our section remains strong. A special thanks to all of the past and current council members for all that you've done (and do!) for the section. And, of course, thank you to all of our section members.
While our section membership numbers are down from previous years where we exceeded our goal of 300 members, we must press on. I’m hopeful our membership numbers will begin to climb again in 2021.
During the fall semester, we will be circulating our call for section award nominations, which includes a graduate student paper award and, this year, an article award. Please be on the lookout for these calls.
I look forward to serving the section this year. I hope you find our section welcoming and supportive of your work.
My best,
Georgiann Davis
