Introduction: While authentic and sustained community involvement in the research process is critically important to making new technologies and interventions effective and socially acceptable, there is uneven participation across sociodemographic, racial, and ethnic communities in many research areas, including cancer early detection research. Currently, 18% of cancer in the United States impacts Hispanics and Latinos, this population accounts f…
Game-changing? When Biomarker Discovery and Novel Forms of Patient Work Meet
I analyze the promised efficacy of Pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy regime under clinical trial for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Drawing on anthropological fieldwork with patients and health professionals in a gastrointestinal cancer clinic in London, UK, I tease out the dynamics through which scientists and clinicians assemble personalized technologies to halt cancer growth in patients' bodies; what patients undergo in order to par…
Therapeutic Values in Cancer Care
Cancer is more than just a cluster of diseases.Beyond patho-physiological variations, it has been mobilized by experts and lay people to make sense of a wide variety of phenomena.The regional variability and socio-historical situatedness of experiences of cancer have been
Emotion Work during Colorectal Cancer Treatments
The emotional texture of colorectal cancer treatments in a British oncology clinic provides insight into the ways that patients, their relatives, and health professionals deal with the suffering that cancer poses. In cancer care, verbalizing emotional reactions is understood as a healthy way of dealing with troublesome emotions. Yet, a type of silence, here understood as "not getting upset in front of each other," helps participants to preserve r…
Cultivating Ethnographic Sensibilities in Ethnographies of Dying People
Ethnographers engaged in fieldwork with people who are dying face particular demands concerning the nature and limits of their relationships. Drawing on case studies of two patients in the United Kingdom affected by ultimately fatal brain cancer and bowel cancer, we elaborate on the concept of ethnographic sensibility. We highlight the continual attunement of capacities that guide our participation in intersubjective encounters that are suffused …
Learning to See Cancer in Early Detection Research
This article explores how scientists learn to detect 'pre-cancer', a new diagnostic category defined by the risk of developing the titular disease. This process entails the observation of 'raw signals' that stand for potential molecular and metabolic changes in animal and human tissues and their validation as 'candidate biomarkers'. I draw on ethnographic fieldwork conducted alongside a multidisciplinary group of researchers-physicists, biologist…
Disjunctive belongings and the utopia of intimacy
The paper analyses practices of intimacy among youth in a poor, crime-ridden neighbourhood of Santiago. It argues that their sense of belonging to their neighbourhood and broader society is disjunctive: they inhabit the nation-state without complying with expectations of proper citizenship. Similarly, they dwell in their neighbourhood without identifying with it. Instead, they turn to intimate relations with friends and lovers as spaces of belong…
