Missing Mess and Strange Agencies in Online Images of Mind-Microbiome Connections
This paper examines online images of the relationship between the human microbiome and mind. It asks how these images visualize connections between vastly different scales and kinds of being, and discusses what kinds of agency they perform. An archive of 274 images was built using Google® image search and a qualitative analysis of imaging strategies resulted in five groups of images characterized by their use of linking, zooming, texturing, absen…
Better than antibiotics. Public understandings of risk, human health and the use of synthetically obtained livestock vaccines in five European countries
Drawing upon data collected within 20 focus groups with consumers from five European countries, in this article we investigate how perceptions of human health risk and current anxieties regarding agricultural food production affect citizens’ acceptance of the use of an emerging biotechnology, synthetic biology, in the development of vaccines for animals bred for food production. In focus group discussions in Austria, the UK, Poland and Denmark, p…
Synthetic livestock vaccines as risky interference with nature? Lay and expert arguments and understandings of “naturalness”
The article describes how the idea of “naturalness” was used by three different groups in arguments over the risk of livestock vaccines developed in synthetic biology. Based on interviews with two groups of scientific experts and focus groups with lay people in five European countries, and using Toulmin’s argument analysis as the analytical tool, the article maps and compares the different ways in which “naturalness” was used as a warrant. Severa…
Nothing really responsible goes on here’
Scientists face increasing demands to integrate practices of ‘responsibility’ into their working lives. In this paper, we explore these developments by discussing findings from a research project that investigated how publically funded scientists perceived and practiced responsibility. We show that, though the scientists in this study mostly viewed policy discourses such as Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) as irrelevant to them, they art…

Mapping ‘social responsibility’ in science
This article employs the Foucauldian notion of ‘political rationality’ to map discussions and ideals about the responsibility of science toward society. By constructing and analyzing an archive of 263 journal papers, four political rationalities were identified: the Demarcation rationality, which aims to exclude the social from the scientific production in order to make it objective and thereby responsible; the Reflexivity rationality, which sees…
