New paper co-authored by Tomasz Żuradzki
Tomasz Żuradzki, Principal Investigator of BIOUNCERTAINTY project, published a new article co-authored with Joanna Malinowska: "Towards the multileveled and processual conceptualisation of racialised individuals in biomedical research" in Synthese
Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the processes of racialisation on the example of biomedical research. We argue that applying the concept of racialisation in biomedical research can be much more precise, informative and suitable than currently used categories, such as race and ethnicity. For this purpose, we construct a model of the different processes affecting and co-shaping the racialisation of an individual, and consider these in relation to biomedical research, particularly to studies on hypertension. We finish with a discussion on the potential application of our proposition to institutional guidelines on the use of racial categories in biomedical research.
