The Acceptability of a Tobacco Dependency Treatment for NHS Staff in the North East of England
The service was deemed highly acceptable, and service users' experiences informed recommendations for improving future tobacco dependency services. This is the first known application of the TFA to an evaluation of a smoking cessation intervention, and it contributes to a broader body of research on reducing tobacco dependency
Biden Hears a WHO
The World Health Organization (WHO), the body charged with implementing global pandemic response, figured heavily in the Republican and Democratic campaigns of the 2020 US presidential election. The contrast was stark: Donald Trump drew on and ramped up dissatisfaction with the United Nations system in general and the WHO in particular, culminating in his decision to pull the US out of the WHO in the middle of the pandemic, while Joe Biden rescin…
Science and the State
Modern science and the modern state are inextricable and co-emergent.Indeed, the rise of the state form has been accomplished through the ways of knowing and extracting that scientific analysis makes possible -including classification, hierarchization, quantification, and reductionism.States have frequently used the sciences as powerful tools for defining and delimiting the polis, for expanding markets, and for deterring, threatening, and waging …

Reprotech in France and the United States
The title of this symposium volume of Reproductive Biomedicine and Society Online, ‘Reprotech in France and the United States: differences and similarities’, is deceptively modest. At their best, comparative studies do far more than highlight what is the same and what is different between two or more foci. They also yield clues as to what is important in general to each of the times and places being compared (France and USA today), and what is im…
How Should “CRISPRed” Babies Be Monitored Over Their Life Course to Promote Health Equity
Gene-edited babies who might be born in the future should be monitored over the course of their life. These patients' physical, mental, and social health monitoring should be coordinated by clinicians in ways that anonymize patients' data for privacy protection but also allow for national and international aggregate evaluations. Transnational monitoring efforts should focus on safety and efficacy, social and disability justice, what constitutes t…
What’s Law got to do with Good Science
This short paper is one element of a longer piece titled What's Law got to do with Good Science? It is presented here along with the introduction to the longer piece. In the longer piece, Murphy's paper is joined by two others, one by Marie Fox, the other by Ilke Turkmendag. All three papers engage with Charis Thompson's book Good Science. The longer piece concludes with a response by Thompson

Vote, ovocytes et cosmétiques. Les trois jalons identitaires du recours au genre dans la recherche sur les cellules souches en Californie
Cet article explore les trois jalons identitaires du recours au genre [ punctuated gendering ] dans la recherche biomédicale sur les cellules souches en Californie. J’y défends l’idée selon laquelle le développement de ce secteur a eu besoin des femmes à trois reprises, mais pas de toutes les femmes à chaque fois. En d’autres termes, suivant les étapes que franchissait le développement de l’innovation autour des cellules souches, les femmes ont é…

Good Science
An examination of a decade and a half of political controversy, ethical debate, and scientific progress in stem cell research. After a decade and a half, human pluripotent stem cell research has been normalized. There may be no consensus on the status of the embryo—only a tacit agreement to disagree—but the debate now takes place in a context in which human stem cell research and related technologies already exist. In this book, Charis Thompson i…

Back to Nature
Rereading Carolyn Merchant’s The Death of Nature a quarter century after its publication and from the perspective of its contribution to feminist theory is a rewarding process. Merchant’s book has garnered a sustained readership as a foundational text of ecofeminism. Simultaneously, however, ecofeminism itself has been sidelined within feminist theory because of critiques that it is marred by ethnocentrism and by an essentialist identification of…

Role of Land-Surface Changes in Arctic Summer Warming
A major challenge in predicting Earth's future climate state is to understand feedbacks that alter greenhouse-gas forcing. Here we synthesize field data from arctic Alaska, showing that terrestrial changes in summer albedo contribute substantially to recent high-latitude warming trends. Pronounced terrestrial summer warming in arctic Alaska correlates with a lengthening of the snow-free season that has increased atmospheric heating locally by abo…

The great white silence—II
The Arctic presides in silence, omnipotent spectator to the incursions of man in pursuit of materials and resources to satisfy his own insatiable appetite. This land sits largely untouched by human hand, and in defiance of the adage that “the grass looks greener in someone else's back garden”. Generally, green it is not. The authors have attempted at best, a thumbnail sketch of what it is, where, why and the possible consequences of its thoughtle…

Pearls, Pith, and Provocation
This article details some of the theoretical sampling choices available to researchers considering qualitative approaches to research into nurse decision making and the information that informs it. It draws on the theoretical and empirical literature on decision theory and, in so doing, provides a rationale for the theoretical sampling choices proposed. The final sampling frame is designed to be applied to decision research in nursing but could o…
