Joan’s key research interests revolve around gender, representation and technoscience, and she is particularly interested in the policing of boundaries between science fact and science fiction. A significant strand of her personal research focuses on feminist science fiction and the communities which produce and are produced by that genre. Since completion of the flagship project, Joan has continued to pursue research on the mediation of genomics across a range of topics and genres. One strand of research has involved monitoring the media relations and public consultation exercises conducted by scientists and policymakers with regard to the governance of embryological research. Another major strand examines the representation in fiction of contemporary and emerging biotechnologies and the social, political and ethical challenges they pose. She is currently developing a monograph provisionally entitled Genetic Fictions: Genes, Gender and Genre.
