Women on the Block
In response to the stark gender disparity that plagued blockchain in its early days, a range of 'women in blockchain' initiatives emerged, some more effective than others. Blockchain scenes including 'meetups,' conferences, and hackathons, present ideal sites to observe these tensions.

Women in Blockchain
Blockchain is an emerging technology characterized by peer-to-peer value transfer, decentralization, and democratic ideals of consensus. It also has a stark gender problem, with women representing just 14% of those participating in the space.

The gendered discourses and practices surrounding…
Genomic Big Data and Privacy
From Patients to Petabytes
Genomic big data is an emerging information technology, which presents new opportunities for medical innovation, as well as new challenges to our current ethical, social, and legal infrastructure. Rapid, affordable whole genomic sequencing translates patients’ most sensitive personal information into petabytes of digital health data. While a biomedical approach traditionally focuses on risks and benefits to the human body, the fields of Communica…
