Sadiah Qureshi
Prof. Sadiah Qureshi is a historian and professor at the University of Manchester, specializing in the history and philosophy of science. Known for her critical examination of extinction and conservation, she explores the complex interplay of race, empire, and environmental issues in her book 'Vanished: An Unnatural History of Extinction.' Growing up in Birmingham, she was inspired by her father's respect for all life, a theme that resonates throughout her work. With a focus on how extinction narratives are shaped by political and historical contexts, Qureshi challenges conventional views on conservation and de-extinction, arguing that these concepts must be understood through the lens of social justice and ethical responsibility.
