Research interests
My research interests cover issues of governance, accountability and ethics in forms of science, technology and organization. I draw on ideas from ethnomethodology, science and technology studies and my research is ethnographic in orientation.
My substantive interests are quite varied. Across a number of research projects I have ethnographically engaged with: markets, cement, security and surveillance, traffic management, waste, airports, biometrics, parking, signposts, malaria vaccines, Universities, algorithms and speeding drivers.
