Panels
Die Dortmunder Wissenschafts- und Techniksoziologie ist an der Organisation von drei Panels auf der EASST2026 involviert: Ann Kristin Augst ist Mitveranstalterin des Panels P079 Fragile futures: Living with chronic post-infectious illnesses , Ronja Trischler co-organisiert das Panel P008 Building and repairing the future sowie das Panel P061 The Futures of Qualitative Inquiries: Post-Digital Methods, Pre-Digital Methodologies , in dem auch Cornelius Schubert als Discussant teilnehmen wird.
Hier die Kurzabstracts zu den Panels, weitere Infos über die jeweiligen Links:
P008 Building and repairing the future
Starting from the premise that practices of creating the past, present and future are interconnected, our panel discusses similarities and differences between building and repairing and how their connection can inspire future design and strengthen the collaboration between STS and engineering.
P061 The Futures of Qualitative Inquiries: Post-Digital Methods, Pre-Digital Methodologies
This panel bridges pre-digital methodologies with post-digital challenges. We ask how qualitative inquiry can handle AI as an "informant" by re-grounding inquiry in core principles (symmetry, iteration, interpretation). We invite conceptual papers on this dialogue.
P079 Fragile futures: Living with chronic post-infectious illnesses
The panel explores how people with chronic post-infectious illnesses such as ME/CFS navigate fragile futures and social absences, asking how STS approaches and patient knowledge can help create more resilient infrastructures of care.
Vorträge
Ebenso wird das Team mit zwei Papern auf der Tagung vertreten sein: Ann Kristin Augst und Cornelius Schubert tragen vor zu Patient-generated data: the temporalities of experience and expertise in lifestyle devices and medical authority in dem Panel P004: Caring for limits in and beyond the ‘now’. The case of health.
Based on interviews with patients and doctors in Germany, we examine how lifestyle devices reshape medical authority through patient-generated data (PGD). We demonstrate how caring for epistemic limits unfolds across conflicting temporalities of continuous monitoring and temporary consultations.
Und Julia Kurz wird im Panel P063: STS confessions as politics of resilience: making untold stories matter vortragen zu Success and failure are not neutral - about the interplay of power, ethics, and negotiations in interdisciplinary projects .
The untold story of this talk is how power structures and personal ethical beliefs — including those of STS researchers — build up the basis of, and frame the interactive processes that lead to the implementation — or at least dominance — of “shared” success definitions in complex projects.
