Christopher Zraunig joined the doctoral program in the Department of Anthropology in 2019. Christopher's dissertation project centers around questions of good aging in the queer communities of Berlin and New York City: How do subjects who fail to adhere to heteronormative and ableist norms of successful aging create good later life for themselves and their chosen families? Christopher’s answers to this question are informed by more than 2 years of ethnographic fieldwork. They hold a BA and a MSc from the University of Amsterdam, for which they conducted ethnographic fieldwork on the long-term trajectory of HIV. Christopher is currently also working on a verbatim style play based on this material. Before coming to Princeton, Christopher worked as a researcher on an interdisciplinary project on dementia care at the Amsterdam University Medical Center VUMC.
