Sarah O'Sullivan is a PhD Candidate in the Department of Anthropology, with a collaborative specialization in Global Health, at the University of Toronto. Her research explores the social experiences of people living with HIV in post-conflict northern Uganda in an era of both accessible, life-giving treatment (ARVs) and an oversaturation of development aid. Sarah has been conducting research in Uganda since 2011, and completed a Master's in Anthropology, with a specialization in African Studies, at Carleton University in 2014. In 2016, she held the position of Visiting Scholar in the Master’s of Medical Anthropology program at Gulu University, where she lectured on the anthropology of infectious disease.
