PhD Dissertation
- Title: Data Between Environment and Health: An Epistemological Study of the Exposome.
- External examiner: Federica Russo (University of Amsterdam)
- Short abstract: This thesis is a philosophical analysis of the epistemic role of scientific data in biomedical research. I use a case study approach and focus on the epidemiology of the ‘exposome’, a new line of research based on a reconceptualisation of exposure and the use of new and diverse datasets. I argue that data can sustain the subject matter of exposome research by shaping concepts, strategies, techniques and what counts as evidence. Yet, the epistemic role of data is enacted by the ways in which it is used by epistemic agents and thus constantly connected to and mediated by other artefacts, components and features of scientific inquiry.
