Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research was to investigate the interaction between the controversy over the status of food allergy as a legitimate biomedical disease and the social implications, including the precautions and legal accountabilities related to food allergies. In this research I collected and read through literature in science studies broadly on the nature of scientific knowledge and its uses in the court of law, as well as natural sciences on the development of the scientific inquiry into food allergy. I also read through legal case laws from the United States involving food allergy. While I was not able to complete the research on this specific topic of food allergy, I could use the understanding I gained in this review to write a kiyo paper on science citizenship in relation to the nuclear disaster in Fukushima.
