Volunteer Research Subjects' Experience of Participation in Research on a Novel Diagnostic Technology for Breast Cancer
Although volunteer research subjects play a crucial role in the development of new health technologies, there have been relatively few in-depth studies of what participation in research means to them, and how they manage and make sense of the research encounter. Using constructivist perspectives we analyze data from 15 United States-based women taking part in tests of prototype instrumentation with potential for cancer diagnosis, comparing their …
Boundary setting in breast cancer research: A Study of the Experience of Women Volunteer Research Subjects
Drawing on a research collaboration between a group of medical physicists and social scientists, this paper aims to explore female volunteers' experiences of participating in a project for developing a new breast disease diagnostic technology using an optical imaging system. In order to understand how these women make sense of being a volunteer, we examine the complexities of their experiences in this type of research setting through an empirical…
Constructing a safe research environment: Technology talk between researchers and volunteer research subjects
This paper analyses how talk between researchers and their volunteer human subjects works to construct a safe and supportive environment in a laboratory setting where women volunteers participate in the development of a new imaging technology with potential for diagnosing breast cancer. Drawing on discourse analysis perspectives, we explore the work talk has to do in order to facilitate the instrumental, ethical and social dimensions of the inter…
Evolving Collaborations
In this paper we aim to study the workings of a cross-disciplinary project in practice, and to relate our approach to other ways of achieving similar goals. By reference to our experience of a project to involve volunteer research subjects more actively in research on developing a new health technology, we explore the dynamics and evolution of the collaborative relationship between the medical physicists and social scientists as the project matur…
