Provincialising Global Oncology
Global Oncology is an important project and concept which has made significant strides in recent years
Emerging Tissue Economies: Personalized Immunotherapies and Therapeutic Value in Cancer
New personalized immunotherapies hold considerable promise among cancer communities and are touted by many as the future of oncology. Described as a way to enhance the body's "natural defense" against cancer, they are made with antigens taken from patients' own tumor tissue. However, they also set up significant dilemmas for patients who are learning what it is like to participate in an emerging tissue economy and the stakes of exclusion from it.…
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 …
Topographies of 'care pathways' and 'healthscapes: Reconsidering the Multiple Journeys of People With a Brain Tumour
People diagnosed with brain tumours enter new and unfamiliar worlds in which they must make complex and previously unimaginable decisions about care, treatment and how to live their lives. While decisions are increasingly based around care pathways, these are embedded in values that often fail to accord with those of patients. In this article, we examine the cases of people with a brain tumour and how they, their families and healthcare professio…
Narratives of continuity among older people with late stage chronic kidney disease who decline dialysis
Chronic and life-threatening conditions are widely thought to shatter the lives of those affected. In this article, we examine the accounts of 19 older people diagnosed with late stage chronic kidney disease who declined dialysis. Accounts were collected through in-depth interview in the United Kingdom (March-November, 2010). Drawing on a phenomenological approach, we focus particularly on the embodied and lived experience of the condition and on…
