Animals and the making of scientific knowledge

Animal research is seen as a key route to the production of scientific knowledge, but is also controversial. Using a mixed method approach, this project will ask: To what extent does legislative change and democratic consultation in the UK make animal research science public, and how are definitions of ‘science’, ‘politics’ (and ethics) reconfigured in this process?

Project: Animals and the making of scientific knowledge (2013-2015) Pru Hobson-West (SVMS); Kate Millar (School of Biosciences); Hammond (SVMS); 3 year PDRA.
