==Career and research== In the continuity of Hanafi's research on the history of medicine and gender, she is interested in the Italian castrati of the modern period by investigating the medical fabrication of sex and its possible reappropriations by the singers, as well as the notion of gender fluidity. She is also interested in epistolary practices and the self-narratives they generate over a long period of time, and in particular in the power of the written word as a tool for social transformation in her research on the fraudulent e-mails of Ivorian "grazers".<ref name="4:frwp">{{cite web |title=Nahema Hanafi |url=https://expertes.fr/expertes/66676-nahema-hanafi/ |website=Expertes France |access-date=23 April 2023 |language=fr-FR}}</ref><ref name="5:frwp">{{cite news |last1=Leprince |first1=Chloé |title=Arnaque par mail : qui sont les "brouteurs" qui piègent les Blancs ? |url=https://www.radiofrance.fr/franceculture/arnaque-par-mail-qui-sont-les-brouteurs-qui-piegent-les-blancs-2869000 |access-date=23 April 2023 |work=France Culture |date=20 January 2021 |language=fr}}</ref>
