Speakers:
Stephen Linstead is a Professor of Critical Management at The York Management School, University of York. His research tends to fall into five main areas – organization theory and philosophy; aesthetic approaches to organization; language based approaches to organization; gender and sexuality in organizations; qualitative methods, ethnography and culture.
Karen Dale works in the Department of Organisation, Work and Technology at Lancaster University, UK. Her research is on embodiment, socio-materiality and spatiality in relation to organising. As well as journal articles, she is author of ‘Anatomising Embodiment and Organisation Theory’ (Palgrave 2001) and ‘The Spaces of Organisation and the Organisation of Space: Power, Identity and Materiality at Work’ (with Gibson Burrell, Palgrave 2008).
Joanna Latimer is a Professor of Sociology, Science & Technology & Director of the Science & Technology Studies Unit (SATSU), University of York. Her research focuses on the cultural, social and existential effects and affects for how science & medicine are done. She works ethnographically, from the bedside, inside the clinic, across to the laboratory and the home, and back again. Her work examines everyday processes of inclusion and exclusion, and tracks how people, technologies and other non-humans are assembled and made to mean. She is especially interested in the worlds people make together and the biopolitics they are entangled in and circulate.
Nik Brown is a Professor in Sociology at the University of York working across Science and Technology Studies (STS) and the Sociology of Health and Illness (SHI). His current AHRC funded (2018-20) project, ‘Pathways, Practices and Architectures: Containing Antimicrobial Resistance in the Cystic Fibrosis Clinic (PARC)’, looks at: spaces and practices; pathways, journeys and flow; and imagining redesign in 3 cystic fibrosis clinics in the UK.
