Her first book, The Symptom and the Subject: The Emergence of the Physical Body in Ancient Greece, appeared in 2010, and a short book on gender appeared last year. She has also edited volumes on Aelius Aristides and the reception of Epicureanism, and published widely on Greek tragedy, Greco-Roman medicine, and Lucretius.
