Bart Penders
Bart Penders holds an MSc in biology (cum laude) from the Catholic University of Nijmegen (currently: Radboud Univerity of Nijmegen, the Netherlands) in which he specialized in evolutionary microbiology and extremophile microbiology, the former at Nijmegen and the latter at Regensburg University (Germany). Subsequently, he moved into Science and Technology Studies and based upon research conducted in this field, he received his PhD degree in 2008 from Maastricht University (the Netherlands). In his PhD research he dealt with the politics of large scale collaboration.
After two posdoc positions in Maastricht and Nijmegen and visiting scholarships in Bielefeld and Christchurch, he now is a an assistant professor at Maastricht University, School for Public Health and Primary Care, Department of Health, Ethics & Society. His research deals with the normative effects of large-scale life sciences. He is mainly interested in how facts, knowledge and norms co-evolve and gain credibility, as well as in the political effects of this co-evolution. He studies these dynamics in the context of nutrition and life sciences. In 2013 and 2014 he is also an Edmond J. Safra Network Fellow at Harvard University's Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics.
Bart has published four books and is working on a fifth. He also published over two dozen peer-reviewed articles and chapters and numerous professional publications.
His teaching centers on academic development in biomedicine, science and technology studies, global health and food innovation.

Books by Bart Penders
With attention to the increasingly porous boundaries between health care and research, the book not only investigates research settings, but also considers the manner in which knowledge produced in laboratories and clinics is translated into day-to-day medical and care practice and health initiatives. It offers a rich examination of the political, technical and organisational facets of collaboration and the implications of changes in collaboration for every day treatment and practice, Collaboration Across Health Research and Medical Care will be of interest to scholars of sociology and science and technology studies, as well as those working in the field of health policy and research.
