Geoffroy Carpier
Dr. Geoffroy Carpier is an anthropologist of science currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at STREAM. He earned his PhD in Sociology and Anthropology at the Université de Rouen in 2021. Funded by the French National Cancer Institute (INCa, 2015-2018), his doctoral research examined an emerging specialization at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) that focused on the promotion and the conduct of medical research on Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM), as well as the concomitant establishment of a new medical specialty, namely “integrative medicine”, since the 1990s. His anthropological work investigates the boundaries of current scientific activities in North America.
Prior to coming to STREAM, Dr. Carpier was a visiting research scholar at New York University (NYU), Department of Anthropology, and a guest researcher at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). As a lecturer, he also taught social sciences for two years in a joint graduate program (Medical School – Department of Political Science) at Université Jean Monnet.
At STREAM, Geoffroy is working on the interface of science and ethics when institutional review committees arrive at judgements about the initiation of cancer trials for new drugs.
Renata Iskander
Renata is a PhD student in the lab working on quantifying the direct benefits, collateral benefits, and burdens of clinical trial participation.

His work at STREAM analyses reasons why paradigms in clinical research persist – even though evidence suggests otherwise. Peter currently focuses on citation networks in cancer drug development and wants to develop different and new ways of visualizing relations between scientific publications. He likes to rethink established structures in research wherever possible. Be aware: If you ask him about where to publish research, you may very well end up in an emotional discussion about access to knowledge. Surprisingly, he believes table tennis players are respected sportsmen (because he is one himself) and loves to do Origami.
