Sex in the medical machine: How algorithms can entrench bioessentialism in precision medicine
Machine learning offers new possibilities for developing more precise diagnostics and treatments, but the increasing use of sex stratification in precision medicine algorithms raises concerns. Using Alzheimer's disease (AD) research as an example in which machine learning approaches are applied to a heterogenous, socially patterned disease, this paper examines how the move toward sex-specific “pink” and “blue” algorithms reinforces biological sex…
The New Genetics of Sexuality
In 2019 a “genetic app” titled “How Gay Are You?” was published on GenePlaza (Maxmen 2019), immediately following the publication of a headline-making genetics study on same-sex sexual behavior (Ganna et al. 2019; Belluck 2019). In response to widespread outrage, the app was quickly discontinued (Bellenson 2019). But, rather than a rogue misapplication of responsible science—as the study's authors and others decried it—this debacle is emblematic …
Making a ‘sex-difference fact’: Ambien dosing at the interface of policy, regulation, women’s health, and biology
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) 2013 decision to lower recommended Ambien dosing for women has been widely cited as a hallmark example of the importance of sex differences in biomedicine. Using regulatory documents, scientific publications, and media coverage, this article analyzes the making of this highly influential and mobile 'sex-difference fact'. As we show, the FDA's decision was a contingent outcome of the drug approval proc…
