Richie Nimmo is a Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Manchester, where he has been a faculty member since returning to Manchester after a fixed-term lectureship at the University of Aberdeen. He earned his PhD in Sociology from the University of Manchester in 2007, focusing on the posthumanist socio-material history of the British dairy industry. His research interests include human-animal relations, political ecology, and more-than-human social research, utilizing theoretical frameworks such as actor-network theory and eco-Marxism.
