Patient and public involvement in health technology assessments: Study protocol for a cross-sectional analysis
Patient and public involvement (PPI) is an essential component of Health Technology Assessment (HTA), as it enhances the relevance and transparency of evaluation processes. Nevertheless, the scope of such involvement varies considerably across contexts, and empirical evidence on current practices within the National Health System remains limited. This study will examine the extent to which HTA reports incorporate PPI and how these practices are p…
“Objetivo: Tener un bebé sano”: El cribado y el diagnóstico embrionarios en las representaciones online de las clínicas de fertilidad españolas
Las pruebas genéticas embrionarias comprenden dos tipos de examen muy distintos. El Diagnóstico Genético Preimplantacional (PGD/PGT-M y PGT-SR) se utiliza en personas que padecen un trastorno genético conocido con el fin de evitar la transmisión de esta anomalía a su descendencia, mientras que el Cribado Genético Preimplantacional (PGS/PGT-A) se ofrece a personas “sanas” para aumentar las tasas de éxito de la Fertilización In Vitro (FIV). Este ar…
A perfect match: Expanded carrier screening in Spain's gamete economy
This article examines how expanded carrier screening (ECS) – a genomic test based on whole-genome sequencing – has been integrated into Spain’s assisted reproductive technology sector. Marketed as a tool to enhance reproductive safety and personalization, ECS has become increasingly routinized within third-party gamete in vitro fertilization (IVF) through its use in genetic matching (GM), a technique that identifies shared genetic risks between d…
Let ‘Pregnant Women Choose the Destiny for Themselves and Their Child’. How Fertility Clinic Digital Platforms Frame Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) in Spain
Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) is used to select in vitro embryos for distinct clinical contexts and purposes. PGT for monogenic conditions (PGT‐M), also known as Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), enables the prevention of passing on a known genetic disorder to one's offspring. Conversely, PGT for aneuploidies (PGT‐A), or Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS), is used to improve IVF success rates in fertility patients and increase…
Beyond Preferences: Rethinking shared decision-making through the Lens of care
Efforts to involve patients in medical decision-making have led to the development of various models for structuring clinical encounters. Among them, Shared Decision-Making (SDM) is now a cornerstone of contemporary healthcare, based on the ethical imperative to involve patients through the articulation of preferences. However, in practice, SDM often relies on a rationalist model of deliberation that prioritizes autonomy, clarity, and informed ch…
Drømmen om at blive mor: En antropologisk analyse af markedsføringen af genetisk testning af embryoner i Spanien
Præimplantationsgenetisk testning (PGT) er en fællesbetegnelse for tre reproduktive teknologier, der kan benyttes i forbindelse med en in vitro fertilisation (IVF)-cyklus. Disse teknologier gør det muligt for potentielle forældre at evaluere deres embryoners genetiske arvemateriale for at kunne fravælge dem, der viser tegn på at afvige fra den biomedicinske norm. Brugen af PGT er generelt stigende, særligt i Spanien, som foretager over halvdelen …
There Are Many of Us: Online Testimonies From "Pill Victims" as a New Form of Health Activism
The French pill scare is usually presented as a "media debate" triggered by the case of Marion Larat, a young woman who suffered a stroke attributed to the pill she was taking. This article intends to focus on a practice that preceded, accompanied, and followed this health scare: the publication of online testimonies of thrombotic reactions posted on the website of the French Association of Victims of Pulmonary Embolism and Stroke Associated with…
À nous d’ouvrir les yeux des autres »: Rendre visibles les risques iatrogènes de la contraception hormonale à travers les témoignages des « victimes de la pilule »
C’est à la suite de la médiatisation de l’accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC), attribué à la pilule, de Marion Larat qu’éclate, en France en 2012, la « crise de la pilule ». Cet article entend contribuer à la compréhension de ce phénomène, en explorant les témoignages publiés sur le site internet de l’Association des victimes d’embolie pulmonaire et d’AVC liés à la contraception hormonale (Avep). L’article les explore en se focalisant sur les stra…

Online Genomes: Problematizing the disruptiveness of direct‐to‐consumer genetic tests
Direct‐to‐consumer genetic tests (DTCGT) provide individualized risk profiles for common diseases through social web techniques. Academic debates have predominantly denounced them as a potentially harmful commercialization of genetics and focused on how laypeople might (mis)understand and (mis)use this information. DTCGT has also stimulated a heterogeneous set of methods and theoretical perspectives in the social sciences, which have drawn on but…
The politics of biomedical platforms: Controversy around the molecularization of cytogenetics in prenatal diagnosis
The introduction of a new technique based on molecular cytogenetics (the comparative genomic hybridization microarray, Chromosomal Micro-Array) in prenatal diagnosis is here used as an occasion to politically elaborate Cambrosio’s and Keating’s framework of “biomedical platform.” The uncertainty generated by molecularization leaves the field open for two different modalities of implementation: using targeted microarrays to completely replace trad…
Precarious subjectivities are not for sale: The loss of the measurability of labour for performing arts workers
Contemporary work increasingly presents itself as an immeasurable endeavour. The social and subjective spaces in which it is practiced are no longer easily circumscribed, and the conceptual categories that traditionally described its relationship with value now appear practically unusable. In particular, workers in the ‘creative industries’ are paradigmatic subjects of the ‘work fragmentation’ process of the post-Fordist era. Cutting across divis…
