Ursula Clayton is an Assistant Professor at the University of Warwick, specializing in Early Modern Studies and Shakespeare. Her research delves into the concept of parasitism within early modern culture, and she aims to trace how ideas of parasitism have been shaped by literary, scientific, and socio-political discourses. Currently, she is completing work on a monograph while also focusing on widening access to higher education for individuals affected by forced migration. Grounded in social justice, her research advocates for universities to design inclusive and locally responsive interventions, such as innovative pathway courses centered around Shakespeare Studies, which aim to create meaningful and scalable changes for displaced learners.
