Producing Value or Responding to Valuation
This paper examines how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) commercialise contemporary biomodifying technologies, focusing on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) and 3D bioprinting. Drawing on qualitative interviews and desk-based mapping of the commercial landscapes surrounding these technologies, we analyse what is being commercialised, in what forms, and how firms justify their strategic choices. Combining insights from STS debates on …
Cognitive Foundations of Society
Interpreting how people accord meaning to life situations is an old challenge in sociology. Emphasis has been given to values shared within social groups; other sociologists have stressed the discursive or communicative dimensions of society. This paper seeks an alternative interpretation by combining sociological inquiry and insights from cognitive linguistics. It explores the concept of schema, which points to the unconscious identification of …
Sociotechnical alignment in biomedicine
Software, risks, and liabilities
The growing use of software in biomedicine has enlarged the capacities of researchers and clinicians. This, one might expect, would enhance the precision and safety of biomedicine. However, it has been recognized that software can bring about new risks to the field of medicine and medical devices, requiring at least some degree of caution from the different players responsible for technology governance and risk management. This phenomenon is focu…
Big data’ or ‘big knowledge’? Brazilian genomics and the process of academic marketization
The Active Role of Geography
Translated for Antipode by Tim Clarke and Lucas Melgaço2 The role attributed to geography and the possibility of a valid intervention by geographers in the process of social transformation depend on one another and result from the manner in which we conceptualize the discipline and its object. If this conceptualization is not embracing of all forms of relation with its milieu, the interventions of geographers will only be partial or functional, a…
