LAW: Curriculum Vitae

Key Facts

I held career posts at Keele, Lancaster and the Open University where I was Professor of
Sociology and a co-director of the ESRC’s Centre for Research on Sociocultural Change,
until September 2014 when I retired.

I am currently Professor Emeritus in Sociology at the Open University, Honorary Professor

in Sociology and the Centre for Science Studies at Lancaster University, and Professor II at
the Sámi University of Applied Sciences, Guovdageaidnu, Norway.

I have held recent visiting appointments at Technologies in Practice at the IT University in

Copenhagen, and the Centre for Advanced Studies at Oslo University.

In 2015 I was nominated as recipient of the Society for Social Studies of Science Bernal
Prize. The prize is award to an individual judged to have made a distinguished contribution
to STS.
