Rachel E. Prentice is an anthropologist with a focus on the intersection of medicine, technology, and the body. Her research interrogates the assumptions and contradictions present in contemporary North American biomedicine. Prentice’s ethnographic work examines the anatomy of surgery, particularly exploring the rise of simulators and other technologies that shape the teaching and practice of medicine. Her investigations document how physicians are trained to embody biomedical techniques and engage with the ethical and perceptual dimensions of their learning processes. Her multidisciplinary research integrates social and cultural theories with the study of medical practices and information technologies.
