With the support of a Fulbright fellowship, I conducted fieldwork in southern highland Ecuador and New York City. I developed a series of workshops on Indigenous Migration from Latin America, in collaboration with Kichwa Hatari and the GC Immigration Working Group.edit

Invasive fungal infections are one of important complication in patients receiving chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Voriconazole is a triazole antifungal agent widely used for prophylaxis and treatment of fungal infections. It is also administered for empiric treatment of fungal infections in patients with febrile neutropenia. Although amphotericin B preparations and fluconazole generally are used for empiric antifungal therapy and antifungal prophylaxis, but it should be noted that there are insufficient data to draw any firm conclusion about use of other new alternatives as drug of choice. This paper will review the researches that conducted on voriconazole as an empiric antifungal therapy or antifungal prophylaxis in patients with neutropenia following chemotherapy or HSCT.

Based on ethnographic research in the Ecuadorian Highlands, this article puts the mobility, migration, and smuggling practices of Ecuador’s indigenous people in historical and contemporary context. The people of Ecuador’s Southern Highlands have been on the move for generations, and migration is deeply embedded in the social and cultural landscape. In the rural communities of Cañar, indigenous coyotes are more than facilitators of migration: they are community members operating amid broader structural constraints, which have led to the emergence of specific trends in the facilitation of irregularized migration, yet they are expected to adhere to communal principles of reciprocity and trust. We place indigenous migrant narratives of mobility and identity at the center of our analysis of human smuggling, articulating a counternarrative to that of criminalization prevalent in transnational debates of irregularized migration, national security, and border control.
