Aims and ObjectivesThis project develops a framework which outlines the argument that genomic science is the publicly mediated science 'par excellence'; (McNeil, 2005) by:
Themes developed throughout the project outputs are:
This project draws on a content analysis of a comprehensive six month
press archive from 2004 which is also compared with content analysis from
a similar sample in 2000 to provide the substantive context for the conceptual
claims developed and the individual case studies sampled. We also draw
on a film catalogue developed by the team, which allows for the analysis
and comparison of film production around human genomics. The project has
also developed catalogues of artists and exhibitions and draws on art
as a critical practice as well as a form of public engagement and exploration
of the intersections of the biological and the social. A selection of
internet texts have also been reviewed and analysed in relation to the
project and the intersection of different media forms and genres is a
central research focus.
