Jane Buckingham completed her PhD in 1996, taking the degree from the University of Sydney after several years' research in India and the United Kingdom. Dr Buckingham is Lecturer in South Asian History at the University of Christchurch, New Zealand, a position held since 1996.
Her thesis draws on archival and indigenous sources to construct a history of medical and legal aspects of leprosy in Colonial South India. The focus is upon the interplay of indigenous and British medical authority, and the ambiguous status of the leprosy sufferers in the British colonial legal and medical system.
Dr Buckingham teaches all aspects of South Asian history and has particular research interests in the history of medicine and law. She welcomes enquiries from those interested in postgraduate research in these areas.
She is currently completing a monograph on Power and Compassion: Crime, Poverty and Marginalisation in early Colonial South India.

Harriet Deacon is currently a freelance historian based in South Africa. She works on HIV/AIDS stigma, the history of medicine and in the field of heritage management and policy. Her work on leprosy was part of a PhD thesis ( Cambridge, 1994) on the history of three medical institutions at Robben Island: a leprosarium, a mental hospital and a chronic sick hospital. This work focused on the stigmatisation of people with leprosy, their enforced segregation from society and gender and racial segregation within the leprosarium. Current projects include a history of medical research at Groote Schuur Hospital.

Simonne recently completed her D.Phil at Oxford and is
currently a sessional lecturer for the Department of History at the University of Saskatchewan
in Canada.
Her masters thesis is a
case study of Westfort Leprosy Institution, seven miles west of
Pretoria, South Africa's administrative capital. The work traces
the history of the institution during the first half of the twentieth
century. It shows how segregation and exclusion operated on multiple
levels. Not only were patients isolated from the outside world but
they were internally segregated along gender, class and racial lines.
Through detailed case studies the work demonstrates how these factors
influenced the daily lives of those living with the disease, the
way in which they were managed and, importantly, their
access to facilities and resources. These divisions were highlighted
by the fact that Westfort catered for male and female patients and
was one of only two multi-racial government run leprosaria in South
Africa.

George Joseph
is a doctoral candidate in the Section of the History of Medicine,
Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut (USA).
He was graduated from Washington University in Saint Louis (USA)
with the A.B. with honours in biology and history and the A.M. in
history before beginning advanced studies at Yale. In 2000, he received
M.A. and M.Phil. degrees in the history of medicine and science
from Yale. His interests are in the history of American medicine,
particularly the history of disease and public health, reflected
in his dissertation that examines efforts to control leprosy (Hansen's
Disease) in Massachusetts between 1880 and 1920. More recently,
he has also begun to examine the work of European and American medical
missionaries to leprosy sufferers in Africa and Asia during the
late nineteenth century, particularly the work of Wellesley Bailey
and the Missions to Lepers.
Abstract
Americans
Confront the 'Loathsome' Disease: Leprosy and Tropical Medicine
in Progressive Era Massachusetts
This dissertation
examines efforts to control leprosy in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
between 1880 and 1920. Two events frame the period: the state's
first credible reported case of leprosy in 1880 and the removal
of all leprosy patients in state custody to the federal leprosarium
in Carville, Louisiana in March 1921. The centerpiece of Massachusetts'
public health efforts against leprosy was a leprosarium operated
by the Commonwealth between 1905 and 1921 on Penikese Island, located
fifteen miles from its southeastern coast. The United States operated
leprosaria at Culion in the Philippine archipelago and at Kalaupapa,
on Molokai in the Hawaiian Islands; until 1921, when its operation
was assumed by the United States Public Health Service and designated
as the federal leprosarium at which all states could segregate leprosy
patients, the only other leprosarium in the continental United States
was operated by the state of Louisiana in Carville. Unlike the Philippines,
the Hawaiian Islands, and Louisiana, leprosy was not an endemic
disease in Massachusetts. In fact, between 1825 and 1921, only forty-eight
cases of leprosy were reported in Massachusetts, although thirty-eight
of the cases were identified between 1904 and 1921. Like Louisiana,
Massachusetts was the only other state to pursue aggressive public
health and social welfare efforts against Commonwealth residents
afflicted with leprosy. Particularly striking about these efforts
was that by every measure, public health activities in Massachusetts
were regarded as among the most advanced and most sophisticated
in the United States. Public health officials in Massachusetts recognized
that segregating leprosy patients was medically unnecessary, but
they relented to public pressure to act and to public perceptions
about the dangers posed by leprosy. The story of the Penikese Island
leprosarium demonstrates the power that the popular and the medical
perceptions of a disease continued to exert in the development of
public health policy at a time when physicians and public health
officials were appealing to the authority of laboratory science
as the arbitrator for public health practice. This element of the
narrative considers issues of race, gender, and ethnicity in the
social and medical construction of leprosy. Massachusetts' leprosy
control efforts also reflects the explicit relationship that must
exist between the political culture and the public health community
in the formation and the implementation of any public health undertaking.
Segregating patients on Penikese Island required new public health
laws that defined leprosy as a dangerous disease and that granted
new powers to the state in matters of public health, which Dr Joseph
proposes, involved a fundamental re-orientation of the relationship
between the state and the individual.

Thais Junqueira
is a nursing professor in Universidade Estadual de Maringá.
She is interested in the appearance of leprosy and its influence
on the politics of northwest migration in Parana State. The region
of Maringá City where the work was developed experienced
intense migration movements in the 50's. In this period of the colonization
of this region, many people with the disease left leprosaria and
consequently disseminated the disease. Now due to improved health
control services many peoples are coming to this region for better
treatment.

Julie H. Levison
is a magna cum laude graduate of Wellesley College with a degree
in history. At Wellesley, Levison wrote a history honours thesis
on leprosy and syphilis in 15th and 16th century Europe. As a Rhodes
Scholar, Levison earned an MPhil degree in history from Oxford University,
where she was awarded distinction for her thesis on the history
of leprosy in Puerto Rico. A student at Harvard Medical School,
Julie Levison is training to be a physician.
Abstract
Leprosy has
held a special role in the history of disease and illness. From
biblical times to the modern period, leprosy has been a disease
associated with stigma. This mark of disgrace, physically present
in the sufferers' sores and disfigured limbs, and embodied in the
identity of a 'leper', has cast leprosy into the shadows of society.
This thesis draws on a rich body of primary sources, written in
Spanish, to reconstruct the social history of leprosy in Puerto
Rico from 1898, when the United States annexed this island, until
the 1930s, after the Department of Health relocated leprosy patients
to an insular leprosarium. To examine the scientific understandings
that were the basis of international models for leprosy control,
the thesis begins by charting the development of leprology, or the
scientific study of leprosy, as a science based on bacteriology.
Examining the developments in Norway, the center of scientific research
on leprosy, uncovers the political and social conditions that promoted
this research. The international understanding of leprosy as a bacterial
infection clearly influenced how public health authorities created
and deployed models for leprosy control. Puerto Rico, within a colonial
context, depended on the United States for the organization of its
health services. Thus their model of leprosy control was influenced
by the United States' priorities for public health. These policies
developed over the period of 1898 to the 1930s, as a result of the
interplay between political events, scientific developments, and
popular concerns. By studying the life inside the leprosaria in
Puerto Rico it is apparent that religion was also central to the
importation of American traditions and values in Puerto Rico. The
history of leprosy in Puerto Rico represents the complex, modern
interrelationship of humans, disease, and the social environment.

Leprosy Control in Ogoja Province, Nigeria, 1936-67
Bio
His research
focuses on the co-operation between colonial and national governments,
local bodies, and the Roman Catholic Mission (RCM) in the provision
of leprosy control in the relatively isolated Ogoja Province of
eastern Nigeria. The time period covered straddles Nigerian Independence,
achieved in 1960. The commonalities between leprosy control and
other interventions in rural public health are explored, and some
attention is paid to the international political and medical context
of Nigerian leprosy control. The significance of the Irish link
to RCM welfare work in Nigeria is another focus of this work, linked
as it is to a broader consideration of Irish missionary work overseas.
The relation of RCM leprosy work to other leprosy work in eastern
Nigeria and in Ogoja Province is also considered.

Thesis
"Leprosy and American Imperialism: Patient Communities and the Politics of Public Health in Hawai'i and Louisiana, 1888-1959."
Abstract
Michelle Moran's dissertation argues that a colonizing mentality became intricately interwoven into U.S. public health policy from the late nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries. This study of the Kalaupapa settlement in Moloka'i, Hawai'i, and the U.S. National Leprosarium in Carville, Louisiana, shows how public health officials adapted treatments and regulations developed at one site to the other, changing them to conform to their different ideas of how "Americans" and "natives" could and should be treated. At the same time, patients in both institutions attempted to recast their disease, rejecting the labels of primitive, unclean, and immoral embodied in such terms as "leper" and "leprosy." By exploring how patients actively participated in the practice of U.S. medicine and how leprosy became an American disease, we can more fully appreciate the interplay between metropole and colony in the United States.

In 1997, she
finished her Ph.D dissertation titled "Struggling Against Leprosy:
Physicians, Medicine and Society in Colombia, 1870-1940". In
this research she examined Colombian policy of leprosy control,
analysing the professional interests of the physicians, the state,
and the patients. Doctors, claiming possession of expert knowledge,
initiated a battle to take over Colombian lazarettos, which were
in the hands of philanthropic institutions. The main conclusion
was that the government and the medical community favoured a technocratic
approach to leprosy control rather than the promotion of social
reform as a means to improve general living conditions. The interests
of the medical community and of the elite prevailed over leprosy
patients' interests.
During the year 2000 she visited archives in England, and finished
her book, Batallas contra
la lepra: Estado, medicina y ciencia en Colombia. In this book she
enlarged her research period to 1961, when compulsory isolation
for leprosy patients was abolished. She examined the impact of sulphone
therapy on leprosy control and found that the policy of compulsory
isolation enforced in Colombia for more than half a century created
a huge social and cultural gap between the medical community and
the patients. This situation prevented the sick from taking full advantage
of the new powerful treatment since they distrusted most doctors.
Even if today leprosy is not an important public health problem
in the country, it is still a social issue since newly infected
people hide themselves for fear of being isolated and taken away
from their families.
She is currently researching the history of vaccines and vaccination in Colombia, 1897-1950.
