Hi all,
Please see this ESRC funded Phd project now advertised at Brighton in the Centre for Spatial Environmental and Cultural Politics.
Querying ethics, knowledge cultures, and ethnicity in Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine refusal
Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine refusal varies according to ethnicity, class, and location in the UK. This interdisciplinary, qualitative project develops a cultural view on different institutional, medical and situated epistemologies at play in parental refusals to immunise their adolescent daughters against HPV. It develops an ethnicised critique of the biomedical and political logic that seeks to reduce HPV transmission through routine vaccination versus e.g. individual responsibilisation or sex education. The knowledge and inter-sectorial networks generated will support situated understandings of HPV vaccine refusal, the bio-ethical governance of young people’s sexual health, and people’s engagements with health professionals and government.
