| We make space simple. Douglas Richardson, Mei-Po Kwan, and Michael Goodchild had an article published in Science in 2013, entitled “The Spatial Turn in the Health Research”.
Postgenomics is indeed spatial. It is the spatialization of the human
genome. Yet is there anything problematic regarding the extent can we
map the the exposure spaces of humans that lead to disease and negative
health outcomes? Would we map it for a given set of humans? Which
humans? Who gets to participate? Is such a program realistic?
Reductionist? Biologically limited but nonetheless worthy of pursuing? |
