What is the SSG?

SSG stands for the Smell Studies Group.

The SSG was formed in August of 2022 by Chanelle Dupuis (Brown University) in order to bring together Masters and PhD students, young scholars, interested in the field of Smell Studies. This international group is currently composed of over 100 participants from different institutions representing a wide variety of fields.

The group meets monthly to read key articles, book chapters, and publications in the field, to share research questions and interests, to talks about concerns and doubts about the field, and to make connections across disciplines. This interdisciplinary working group strives to advance the field of Smell Studies through conversation and partnership.

If you are a young scholar (Masters or PhD student) working on anything related to the sense of smell or interested in the field, we invite you to join the SSG! Please fill out this form to join the group: https://forms.gle/kkfmQTRRKqcGweUf6
