Community-led approaches to making fairer digital futures: Researcher-in-residence as creative feminist methodology
Co-creation methodologies have proliferated across the arts, humanities and social sciences over recent decades as researchers, universities, funders, industry and policymakers seek to make research matter beyond the academy, sometimes with different priorities. However, such principles have long been central to feminist and other minoritarian practices attentive to questions of power, politics and ethics and invested in making better worlds. In …
Crafting an Amish biomedical landscape
Within their pluralistic system of health care, the Amish make medical decisions influenced by cultural practice: a call for adherents to separate themselves from the outside world and to yield to the group. Using ethnographic research, this article discusses one aspect of the relationship between Amish communities near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and a pediatric genetics clinic that has reformed the ways it mobilizes biomedicine in order to engage …

The nuanced negative: Meanings of a negative diagnostic result in clinical exome sequencing
Genomic sequencing technology is moving rapidly from the research setting into clinical medicine but significant technological and interpretive challenges remain. Exome sequencing (ES) in its recent clinical application provides a genetic diagnosis in about 25 per cent of cases (Berg 2014). While this diagnostic yield is substantial, it also indicates that in a majority of cases, patients are receiving negative results (i.e. no explanatory geneti…

Humanism and Secularization: From Petrarch to Valla
The Renaissance movement known as humanism eventually spread from Italy through all of western Europe, transforming early modern culture in ways that are still being felt and debated. Central to these debates—and to this book—is the question of whether (and how) the humanist movement contributed to the secularization of Western cultural traditions at the end of the Middle Ages. A preeminent scholar of Italian humanism, Riccardo Fubini approaches …

Language: Insights from acquisition
It is a strange paradox that what occurs with seemingly little effort before school requires so much work and generates so much stress and anxiety in school. It is well established that children have acquired a language system with its own rule-governed grammar before entering kindergarten. Yet, many of them confront linguistic demands during the early years of schooling that they can't meet and, often, can't understand. In fact, the inauguration…
