Eliott Rose is a PhD student at the University of Manchester and recipient of the Queer and Trans Healthcare and Creativity Scholarship. His doctoral research examines trans activism within and inspired by the HIV/AIDS crisis from the 1980s to the present, with a focus on communities of care, kinship, and political organising. He is particularly interested in how archives can be reimagined to foreground trans experiences, knowledge, and forms of care. Prior to his PhD studies, he worked in healthcare policy, most recently at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.
