Doing ethics with microbes: toward a queer feminist posthuman framework for bioethics.
Wellcome Open Res
September 2024
Sociology/CSSM, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Uusimaa, Finland.
Article Synopsis
- The Centre for the Social Study of Microbes (CSSM) at University of Helsinki focuses on innovative approaches to understanding the complex relationships between microbes, antimicrobial resistance, and human health through multidisciplinary research.
- The CSSM explores various areas such as fermentation practices, microbial bioremediation, and the role of microbes in urban gardening, aiming to use ethnography combined with artistic practices for a more immersive understanding.
- The center seeks to address ethical issues in microbial studies by proposing a queer feminist posthuman bioethics framework that promotes justice for all living beings while incorporating existing social justice concerns related to gender and sexual variance.

October 2024
Psychological Sciences and Counseling, Tennessee State University, Nashville, TN, USA.
Objectives: Controlling images and racialized stereotypical myths inform Eurocentric and cultural standards of beauty that shape Black American women's body image and well-being. Cultural responsiveness is crucial in understanding the lived experiences of Black American women, the systemic oppressive factors that subjugate them, and the impacts on their mental health.
Design: An integrative review was conducted on controlling images and racialized stereotypes, standards of beauty, and body image to assess the contribution of these factors on Black American women's mental health, specifically, disordered eating, depression, and anxiety.

University of Graz, Austria. Electronic address:
Torrey Peters' debut novel Detransition, Baby from 2021, a Women's Prize for Fiction nominee, problematizes gender norms by telling the story of three main characters: Reese, a trans woman, Ames, who de-transitioned to live as a man again, and Katrina, a Chinese and Jewish cis woman who is also Ames' lover and boss. Ames and Katrina are expecting a child and are testing the possibilities of having a non-conventional family together with Reese. Parenthood is, thus, the central theme of the novel which structures also the sections of book into the time before the conception and the weeks after it.

August 2024
Cultural Studies, George Mason University, Fairfax, USA
This article explores the feminist social critique in the 'big heroine' drama, a newly emerged genre of television that focuses on empowering yet dramatic stories of urban women in contemporary China. The article theorises the genre as a site of ongoing contestations to inform and critique women's maternal reality in neoliberal, pronatalist China. The big heroine genre is situated in the postsocialist structure of feeling defined by alienation and precarity, responding to China's need to stabilise the emerging population crisis and labour shortage.
