AIDS in Epidemiologyland: the politics of knowledge production in HIV/AIDS in Uganda (Critical global health)

在我的博士研究中，在了解了手头研究项目的历史和政治背景和作用后，我建议直接专注于这些项目本身，并在其中至少一个项目内进行制度人种学。这是对我的MPHIL研究方法的扩展，为此我进行了采访，并使用流行病学出版物作为主要的历史材料，因为由于新冠肺炎大流行，我无法在乌干达进行实地考察。拟议的扩展将包括参与者观察和更多的访谈，这对于进一步了解在开展全球卫生研究的机构内塑造全球卫生研究日常现实和实践的仪式、惯例、关系、过程和程序将是重要的。这些维度构成了物质和审美环境以及进行研究的空间政治的一部分，这些维度还无法通过我在办公桌上进行的MPhil研究获得。

In my doctoral research, with an understanding of the historical and political contexts and roles of the research programs in hand, I propose to focus directly on these programs themselves and conduct an institutional ethnography within at least one of them. This represents a methodological expansion on my MPhil research, for which I conducted interviews and used epidemiological publications as primary historical material, as I was unable to do fieldwork in Uganda due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The proposed expansion, to include participant observation and more numerous interviews, will be important in furthering an understanding of the rituals, routines, relationships, processes, and procedures that shape the everyday realities and practices of global health research within the institutions that conduct it. These dimensions form parts of the material and aesthetic environment and the spatial politics in which research takes place, dimensions that have been as yet inaccessible through my desk-based MPhil research.
