Daria Bozzato, visiting assistant professor in Italian studies, received a research fellowship from the Luso-American Development Foundation (FLAD) in partnership with the Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal (BNP), to fund her research project "Domesticating the Deviant: Photography, Honor, and the Surgical Policing of Women in the Luso-Italian-American Asylum." The project investigates how psychosurgery and psychiatric photography functioned as tools for the "surgical domestication" of women across Portugal, Italy, and the United States.
