Joëlle Vailly’s research project focuses on the police and justice system’s use of genetic analysis and databases. It aims to analyze these technical and legal innovations by looking at their scientific, political, and moral dimensions in France. These practices lie at the heart of the social configurations that are embedded in contemporary biopolitics.
