Dr. Fairley Le Moal is an Associate Researcher in Sociology at the Centre Max Weber UMR 5283 (France).

She investigates the practices and experiences of family mealtimes in middle and upper-class households, looking into food socialisations, family relationships, emotion management and power dynamics. Her results shed light on the work of everyday family mealtimes, and the contradictory imperatives family members face – particularly mothers – when it comes to eating together and maintaining health within the family, which end up reproducing gender inequalities at home.
