Title: Dr. Job Title: Senior Research Fellow Tel: 01392 725129 Fax: 01392 724676 Email: c.hauskeller@exeter.ac.uk Building: Byrne House, Streatham Campus, University of Exeter Room Number: FF13
My academic work is directed at developing a critical philosophy of the life sciences, encompassing epistemology, ontology, moral philosophy and ethics. My PhD in Philosophy was completed in 1999 at the University of Darmstadt. My dissertation was on contemporary modes of conceptualizing the subject, focusing on Michel Foucault and Judith Butler, and was published as a monograph in 2000.
Through a postdoctoral position on the ethics of stem cell research my area of expertise shifted toward the philosophy of biomedical science and technology. I completed several research projects in collaboration with Professor Wolfgang Bender in Darmstadt on stimulating interdisciplinary groups, before coming to Egenis in 2002.
Methodologically, I combine traditional philosophical and empirical anthropological methods and have extensive experience of working in close collaboration with scientists and policy makers. My work presents critical interdisciplinary perspectives on the rationales and day-to-day social practices underlying both the production of scientific knowledge and the forming of policies and ethical standards.
I have published broadly in the philosophy of the life sciences (four edited books, more than 30 chapters and articles) and on other topics. I am a regular speaker at wider audience debates on stem cell research and genomics and I have given evidence to UK, German and Austrian Government bodies. I am an Honorary University Fellow at the Peninsula School For Medicine and Dentistry (PCMD) and a member of a number of boards advising research projects and grant awarding bodies (European Research Council, UK BBSRC, UK ESRC). In 2006 I was awarded the Young Scholar Award of the Interdisciplinary Program 'Ethics & Public Life' at Cornell University (NY) for my contributions to debates on stem cell research and the implications of genomic knowledge. My paper Human Genomics as Identity Politics (pdf), first presented at the Young Scholars Conference at Cornell University in 2006 is presented here in a revised and updated version.
Research Interests
My research investigates the social and epistemic functioning of the life sciences, in particular genomics, stem cell research and artificial life creation. The motivation for the empirically informed research projects I lead arises principally from the idea that biology and medicine are deeply socially embedded humanities, not natural sciences. The reason is that humans can neither think nor engineer the human mind or body without operating in a circle of self-reference. I am very interested in contributing to a critical theory of the biosciences that is philosophically and politically relevant and empirically informed.
Currently I am working on the following projects: Stem Cell Science and Genomics and the Politics of Identity.
Research Students
I currently supervise 2 PhD students:
David Wyatt ESRC studentship 2010-2013. David’s research explores the role of the perceptions, the training and the practices of Crime Scene Investigators in their use of DNA and forensic science in day-to-day police work. Maren Klotz part-time 2005-2012 (Cotutelle Exeter and Humboldt University Berlin, jointly supervised with Prof. Stefan Beck). Maren is investigating the interplay between cultural perceptions of the family and reproductive technology regulation, comparing Germany and Britain.
Former PhD students Dr Marco Liverani completed 2011. 'European Biofutures. The Politics and Practice of Science Cooperation in the European Union’. Research Fellow at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine since August 2010 . Dr Jean Harrington completed 2011. ‘Translational Space. An Ethnographic Study of Stem Cell Research’. Jean is now a postdoctoral Research Assistant at the University of Exeter. Dr Hristina Petkova completed 2009. ‘How Gene TestsTravel: Bi-national Comparison of the Institutional Pathways Taken by the Diagnostic Genetic Test for Maturity onset Diabetes of the Young Through the British and the German Health Care System’. Research Fellow in Public Health at King’s College London since 2009.
Submitted PhD Ayesha Ahmad submitted in January 2012. Her thesis is a deconstruction of the human embryo as represented in dedical textbooks and looks at the effects this staging has on clinical practice. Ayesha is a PhD student at the Peninsula Medical School.

Educational Activities
‘Human Embryos or Hybrids?’ Christine Hauskeller and Jean Harrington have developed an educational role-play, used for teaching ethics in the Peninsula Medical School. The role-play involves students in ethical decision-making processes and provides a practical introduction to the ethical implications of current stem cell science.
