Vacancy Reference No: JN05776

Limit of tenure applies*

The University invites applications for two doctoral studentships funded by a Wellcome strategic award in history of medicine . We seek outstanding candidates whose research would fall within the theme ‘Generation to Reproduction’.

‘Generation’ and ‘reproduction’ are at the heart of medicine. They involve theories of sex and gender; entities such as seeds, germs, embryos, monsters and clones; concerns about creation, evolution, degeneration and regeneration; investments in maternity, paternity and heredity; practices of fertility control, potency and childbirth; and health relations between citizen and state, individual and population. These crossroads for rich traffic to and from biology, the social sciences and the humanities have been of intense public and historical interest since the 1970s. Yet for all the excellent historical work, research tends to be dispersed among sub-disciplines and periods. The major frameworks are showing their age. Central topics, such as the recent rise of technologies of assisted reproduction, have hardly been studied. This award brings together expertise in every major period, and combines quantitative social and demographic approaches with more anthropologically oriented histories of natural philosophy, biology and medicine. We aim for a systematic reassessment of the field.
