Riddle Me DATA: Science, Anthropology & the Future of Knowledge, Part II - Coles

Riddle Me DATA: Science, Anthropology & the Future of Knowledge, Part II
 
CHAIR: HANNA, Bridget (Northeastern U)
 
COLES, Kimberley (U Redlands) Evidence and Experiment in GIS-Enabled Community Driven Development in the Philippines HANNA, Bridget (Northeastern U) Toxicology without Targets: Exposomics, Data & the Infinite Environment ANNECHINO, Rachelle and LEE, Juliet P. (PIRE) The Secret Lives of Search Algorithms: Youtube Search as a Social Environment METZNER, Emily (UIUC) Evidence In, Evidence Out: The Changing Contours of Due Process in an Evidence-Based Age DISCUSSANT: KENDALL, Carl (Tulane U)
 
HANNA, Bridget (Northeastern U) Riddle Me DATA: Science, Anthropology & the Future of Knowledge, Parts I-II. The increasing interdisciplinarity of Big Data science poses new riddles for anthropologists. Originally, disciplinary divisions were driven by the urge to: 1) protect unique epistemologies; 2) foster distinct methodologies, & 3) cultivate specialized knowledge. Today however, disciplinary silos are being eroded by the rise of the data sciences, with their omnivorous appetite for information and relatively agnostic view as to its’ philosophical underpinnings. What does this mean for ethnographic practice, for collaboration, and for justice? How do we ethically work with, within, and with-out Big Data? Stories across environmental, medical, cartographic, judicial and managerial worlds help frame these new conundrums.

WEAVER, Lesley Jo (U Alabama), KAISER, Bonnie (Duke U), and SCHENSUL, Steven (UCHC) Culture-Bound Illness Syndromes and Idioms of Distress: A Basis for Devising Anthropological Interventions. Anthropologists have long recognized that manifestations of physical illness and psychological distress do not always conform to psychiatric disease states. While many of those who are biomedically-trained have been dismissive as a result, applied anthropologists have recognized their utility as the basis for interventions that can improve communication, adherence, treatment outcomes, stigma reduction and systems change. Session papers will present recent ethnographic and mixed-methods work that identifies and measures cultural syndromes and their incorporation into interventions. This session will include small-group brainstorming of potential interventional approaches and is a companion to a session organized at the recent Society for Psychological Anthropology meeting.
