Validating what counts as knowledge: The algorithmic gaze and nested multifocality in the biosciences

2025-09-02

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>In this article, we introduce the notions of <italic>algorithmic gaze</italic> and <italic>nested multifocality</italic> as analytical categories to investigate the production of evidence in contemporary biosciences. We take a critical stance against certain rhetorics of data-driven science that suggest what counts as evidence is increasingly less the result of experimental procedures a...
