“My PhD, in partnership with the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, studies the large collections of 18th and 19th-century Cinchona bark, where quinine comes from. I was commissioned by Kew to write a book on the natural and social history of tonic water and the origins of the gin and tonic. Just the Tonic was published last November and won Best Debut Drinks Book’at the Fortnum and Mason Food and Drink Awards 2020. The support from AHRC Techne NPIF and Royal Holloway made this possible, and I really recommend both the scheme and the university, which have been really supportive.”

Kim AHRC Techne-funded doctoral researcher on a National Productivity Investment Fund (NPIF) Studentship
