#STS scholars, philosophers and historians of #technology before AI: Technology is complicated, it always depends on social use, nothing is determined, users are adaptive and creative #STS scholars, philosophers and historians of #technology after AI:

So after many recommendations I finally got Mol’s The Body Multiple. I wonder how to read it. Every chapter is two parallel running texts. I would probably read each chapter twice, or do the texts on the same page comment on each other directly?

New book out now – open access!

"Adverserial" reanalyses of regulatory data pose a deep problem for existing methods of adjudicating which science our regulations should be based on

This is, unfortunately, a continually-relevant story about what #openscience and #opendata mean for how we make regulations and come to consensus as a society

This Wednesday, I'll be presenting part of my PhD research on the history of neuroscience in Argentina. The talk brings together scientometric analysis and qualitative research to explore how the field has taken shape, and the factors that influence it. Let me know if you're interested, I'd be happy to share the link

I just witnessed something I think I will never experience again: a PhD student created a two hour improv comedy show about key texts in Science and Technology Studies. At one point, she dressed up as a scallop. It was hilarious and fun!

Can Science and Technology Studies (#STS) play a transformative role in advancing #EpistemicJustice?

We're thrilled to co-host with the
British Sociology Association's STS Study Group this rich discussion featuring speakers who will share insights from their experience in creating meaningful change in both #GlobalNorth and #GlobalSouth
