摘要

新的生物医学成像技术使胚胎学家能够观察人类胚胎的发育,为辅助生殖的生活地理提供了新的可能性。更具体地说,这些技术产生了新的体外胚胎的视觉表现,可以与不孕不育患者分享,作为一种让他们参与治疗的方式,我们探索这些图像如何在生育诊所之外的地方和关系中循环,产生不同的影响。根据英国接受体外受精(IVF)的患者和合作伙伴访谈的经验材料,本文批判性地考察了与胚胎图像的接触如何在空间和时间上创造扩展,以及人们与特定种类的生殖生物信息之间的亲密关系。通过这一点,我们推进地理方法与辅助生殖技术,生物医学和生物信息,以及体外胚胎的流动性及其视觉表征的社会和文化概念化具体化相遇。患者和合作伙伴与新形式的生殖生物信息的接触为新的生殖知识和经验的形成提供了重要的见解。

Watching embryos: exploring the geographies of assisted reproduction through encounters with embryo imaging technologies
ABSTRACT New biomedical imaging technologies, which enable embryologists to observe the development of human embryos, are presenting new possibilities for the lived geographies of assisted reproduction. More specifically, these technologies produce novel visual representations of in vitro embryos that can be shared with fertility patients as a way to involve them in their treatment, and we explore how this imagery circulates in places and relationships beyond the fertility clinic with diverse effects. Drawing on empirical material from interviews with both patients and partners undergoing in vitro fertilisation (IVF) in the UK, this article critically examines how encounters with embryo imagery create spatially and temporally extended as well as intimate relationships between people and a particular kind of reproductive bioinformation. Through this, we advance geographical approaches to embodied encounters with assisted reproductive technologies, biomedicine and bioinformation, as well as social and cultural conceptualisations of the mobilities of extracorporeal embryos and their visual representations. Patients and partners’ engagements with a new form of reproductive bioinformation provide important insights into the making of new reproductive knowledge and experience.
