Bio: RESEARCH I analyze the cultural and social matrixes of science, technology, and medicine in the Americas. My comprehensive examination will focus on trends and patterns in the scholarship on United States software, 1969 - 2000; this will lead to a dissertation involving interdisciplinary analysis and historical narrative on four selected case-studies of databases in the United States. My secondary research project is constructing the historical and social relationships since the nineteenth century between the public health of selected American Indian nations, federal policy, professional organizations and educational institutions.
