The lowest common denominator? : a Newcastle case study on research practice and disciplinarity in nanoscale science and technology

My PhD thesis explores the nature of Nanoscale Science and Technology, in particular how this new and emergent research field is constructed in science practice. I examine the sociotechnological worlds of scientists in NST, in particular their disciplinary identity construction, and their negotiatio...
