Megan B. Ratliff, Ph.D., is a media and cultural researcher with expertise in the material histories of technology, gender, labor, and visual culture. Dr. Ratliff's doctoral work at Virginia Commonwealth University traced how photographic and AI imaging systems are shaped by industrial processes, regulatory environments, and gendered labor. She brings international perspective from living three years in South Korea and two years of postgraduate research in Scotland. Her expertise offers research institutions a strong foundation in archival analysis, policy-relevant scholarship, and cross-sector communication, especially on issues related to tech ethics, creative labor, and global media infrastructures.
