Dr Kerry Mackereth (she/her) is a Christina Gaw postdoctoral researcher in Gender and Technology at the University of Cambridge Centre for Gender Studies.

She is the co-editor of the upcoming collection Feminist AI with Oxford University Press, the co-host of The Good Robot podcast on feminism and technology, and the co-founder of the Race Talks seminar series. She has appeared on popular shows such as The Guilty Feminist and has been recognised as one of the 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics 2022.

In October 2022, she will join the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence (CFI) on the Desirable Digitalisation Project to research anti-Asian racism and AI, and in February 2023 she will be a Visiting Fellow at the Sarah Parker Remond Centre for the Study of Race and Racialisation at the Institute of Advanced Studies, UCL.
