Yelena Gluzman works in emergent modes of collaborative experimental Science, Technology, Society Studies (STS). Her research has developed critical collaborations with scientists, engineers, experimental subjects, and stenographers, which inform 'methodologics' for experimental theater and feminist STS. She has completed a project that reconsiders experimental methods in cognitive neuroscience experiments focused on autism, collaborating with cognitive neuroscientists to design alternatives to deficit-based experimental paradigms. Currently, she is working on a multimedia project investigating the role of stenographers in real-time talk-to-text captioning for d/Deaf students, exploring the dynamics of distributed sense-making and access in relation to automated captioning systems. Gluzman is committed to mentoring graduate students and advanced undergraduates in projects that utilize performance, artistic, and critical making strategies to engage with the history, sociology, anthropology, and philosophy of science, medicine, and technology.
