Prof. Clark's fieldwork is centered in Ghana on matrilineal women traders and the history of gender in the division of labor in the home, market, farm and community politics. She also analyzes how women figure in policy debates over development, population, family values, and other issues, drawing on diverse international feminisms. Her interest in feminist research methodology ranges from her current life history project to participatory surveys.

Prof. Elliott is a medieval historian whose research focuses on the interaction between gender, sexuality, and spirituality. Her most recent book examines the way in which the clergy's fear of ritual pollution, which was primarily understood in terms of a sexual taint, led to a progressive demonization of female sexuality and the rise of witchcraft.
