Lawrence Eng, aka "Lawmune"

Bio

I am a social scientist specializing in otaku studies. I received my PhD in Science and Technology Studies from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2006. My doctoral research examined the ways in which anime otaku and related subcultures engage and appropriate science and technology. I am currently the Product Research Manager for Opera Software in San Diego, CA. For more information, see my webpages (linked below).
