Great to present some research findings on sugar consumption, commodities and ideas about ‘choice’ in Scotland at #EASA2024 conference @UniBarcelona, hear about new research going on @EasaFood and reflect on futures of food anthropology together! #sugar #food @Understand_CDoH

Enjoyed this exploratory workshop w/ @TessDavisPsy on smell, place and relationships. We discuss how people smell the City of Edinburgh, including deep-fried smells, vapes, and scents of gentrification... Part of @xuelei_huang's 'Smells of Scotland' @FRIEDinburgh @EdinburghUni

Our anthro article on experiences of #covid testing is here! @TestEd_UoE @EdinburghUni @MedAnthUoE @DiaDev_Research @edin_EID
Why do people take part in asymptomatic testing programmes? What makes these programmes work or fail? A few findings:

[Medical Anthropology @MedAnthropology]

COVID testing in #UnitedKingdom is as much for the protection of the self as for others. @ImogenBevan @LindaBauld & Street examine how testing is a relational technology, engendering an understanding of interpersonal and public scales of responsibility.

🔊 New paper led by our brilliant Rosemary Hiscock that seeks to map the tobacco supply chain 🍃 🏭 showing #BigTobacco's 🌎 reach and how there's a link with interference.
Also wondering how similar it'd look for industries like alcohol and food... #CDoH https://t.co/rtti0IPs5t

[Imogen Bevan @ImogenBevan]

Oh, and would also love to hear any favourite #Covid #Anthro #ethnography literature on relationships and technologies too. So far I have collated some very interesting research on testing, mask wearing, and epidemiological reasoning...

[Imogen Bevan @ImogenBevan]

Hello #Anthro friends 👋, any recommendations on literature on protecting others (loved ones/strangers) during previous/ongoing epidemics? And particularly any epidemic technologies of care? Thank you! #anthrotwitter #ethnography

So far have found lots of super interesting research on HIV testing/condoms depending on levels of intimacy, and use of face masks pre-covid - would love to chat with anyone interested in similar topics 👍

[Imogen Bevan @ImogenBevan]

Excited to see our paper out in BMJ Open!

Want to do a 2-year postdoc with me in STS, Gender and Medical Technologies at Chalmers STS? Look at this position now announced, with deadline Dec 1st. https://t.co/hZvESnaHC0 #feministSTS #STS

[Imogen Bevan @ImogenBevan]

Findings:
👉Testing for #COVID19 is experienced as a civic duty & moral duty.
👉BUT, #covid testing can place a hidden social, economic and practical 'burden' on the individual.
👉Testing is a 'social process' shaped by people's relationships and different ethical considerations.
