According to the Institute
of Higher Education at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

Bryan Pfaffenberger has launched a new STS Wiki.
I have been thinking along the same lines for a while, but Bryan actually didi
it! It’s a great initiative. A Wiki is a collaborative encyclopedia, where
visitors to the site can contribute. Using the STS Wiki you can find STS
departments, look up other STS
scholars (or add yourself), find other STS
blogs, contribute with your knowledge about the STS field, or just use it
as an encyclopedia. Great work Bryan!

A new great STS thesis published from the department. Petra Jonvallen passed her
Ph.D. defense today for her dissertation: Testing Pills, Enacting Obesity
– The work of localizing in a clinical trial. Petra investigates how
different tools are localized and discipline practice in order to organize work
and produce reliable data. She uses Annemarie Mol’s concept enactment to understand how obesity is done in different ways in the clinical trial.
