Listen "Internet Cures: The Social Lives of Digital Miracles with Dr Dang Nguyen"
Episode Synopsis
Dang’s interest in internet cures grew out of the misinformation boom in 2016, but instead of following the popular research agenda she wanted to understand the cultural and historical contexts behind these practices.
Unravelling the intricate connections between social, technological, biomedical, and non-biomedical spheres, Dang’s new book ‘Internet Cures’ explores the intersection of miracle cures and technology, combining computational social media data with ethnographic insights from Vietnam and the US, and captures the interconnected lives of such cures in the digital realm.
