L’utilité de ce genre d’institutions est incontestable. Car le monde moderne est sans cesse confronté à des innovations, médicales ou autres, qui s’appliquent à l’homme ou à son environnement proche. Ce lieu est donc nécessaire pour préparer la matière intellectuelle qui sera ensuite transférée aux citoyens afin que ceux- ci puissent se prononcer quant à la légitimité de ces innovations.

She did her Dissertation in Public Health on “Geneticisation of Conception” (published 2007) after studies in biology (diploma), philosophy, history and political sciences in Regensburg/Germany, Córdoba/Argentine and Bremen/Germany.
From 2004 to 2007 she was visiting research fellow at different international Institutes: at the Department for the History of Public Health, University of California in San Francisco/USA; at the Science and Technology Studies Unit (SATSU), University of York/Great Britain (as EU Marie Curie Fellow); at the Institute for Advanced Studies of Science and Technology Studies, Graz/Austria; at the BIOS, London School of Economics/Great Britain.
