Professor Rachel A. Ankeny is an interdisciplinary teacher and scholar whose areas of expertise cross several fields: history/philosophy of science, bioethics and science policy, and food studies. She is an Honorary Visiting Professor in the College of Social Science and International Studies (Philosophy) at the University of Exeter (UK). Rachel has a BA in Liberal Arts (Philosophy/Maths, St John's College, Santa Fe, NM), and MA degrees in Philosophy and in Bioethics, and a PhD in the History and Philosophy of Science (all from the University of Pittsburgh, PA). She also holds a Master of Arts in Gastronomy (University of Adelaide) and a Graduate Certificate in Online Learning (Higher Education) from the University of Adelaide. Prior to joining the University of Adelaide in 2006, she was director and lecturer/senior lecturer in the Unit for History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Sydney from 2000.Rachel previously served as Deputy Dean Research (former Associate Dean Research, 2011-19 and Deputy Executive Dean, 2015-21) for the Faculty of Arts, and coordinated the Faculty's ARC ERA and Engagement and Impact submissions during this period. She also formerly served as the Faculty's Associate Dean (International) (2009-10). She also has overseen research strategy related projects for the Division of Research and Innovation (DRI) at the University of Adelaide including preparation for ERA and research publication strategies (2021-22).*FOR ALL ENQUIRIES RELATED TO STUDIES IN HISTORY & PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE, PLEASE EMAIL shps@adelaide.edu.au

Research Interests

Rachel's research interests and expertise cross several areas and fields: the history and philosophy of science particularly biomedical/biological sciences, bioethics and science policy, food studies, and migration history. 

In the history and philosophy of science, her research focuses on the roles of models and case-based reasoning in science, model organisms, the philosophy of medicine, and the history of contemporary life sciences. Her major ongoing projects include Organisms and Us: How Living Things Help Us to Understand Our World which is a comprehensive historical and philosophical exploration of the changing roles and understandings of research with organisms in 20th and early 21st century science. She also has long-standing research on norms and practices in contemporary biology, including the Bermuda Principles for data sharing (see the archive created for this project). Among her current book projects is a study focused on the use of case reports in biomedical science and clinical practice for which she received a 2022 book manuscript grant from the Ann Johnson Institute for Science, Technology and Society.

She is the sole international partner investigator on an European Research Council Consolidator Award grant to Prof Sabina Leonelli now at the Technical University of Munich entitled A Philosophy of Open Science for Diverse Research Environments (PHIL_OS) (2021-26), with special focus on developing methods from the philosophy of science in practice approach for application to explorations of open science.

Rachel is an international PI on the ARC Training Centre for Future Crops Development with responsibility for the subprogram focused on social engagement, market shaping, and responsible research innovation (RRI) frameworks for use in innovative crop technologies and training associated with RRI together with Prof Joan Leach (ANU) and Prof Carolin Plewa (Adelaide).

In bioethics, Rachel has long-standing interests in genetics and genomics, transplantation, stem cell research, and feminist approaches to bioethics. She is the lead CI on a NHMRC Medical Research Future Fund project via their 2020 Stem Cell Therapies Mission on Developing an Evidence-Based Model for Building Trust in Australian Stem Cell Research and Therapies (2021-24) in collaboration with Prof Joan Leach (ANU), Prof Di Nicol (Tasmania), and Prof Christine Wells (Melbourne). She also is a CI on a NHMRC Medical Research Future Fund project via their 2021 Genomic Health Futures Mission entitled LINEAGE: Law, sociology and ethics in data governance for genomics (2022-27) led by Prof Ainsley Newson at University of Sydney.

She is a co-investigator on an Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) funded project entitled Improving Indigenous Research Capabilities: An Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Research Data Commons, run by Prof Marcia Langton and the Indigenous Data Network at the University of Melbourne. Her subproject, with collaborators from CSIRO and Macquarie, focuses on the potential and limitations of traditional knowledge (TK), Indigenous knowledge (IK), and biocultural (BC) labels in a range of types of Australian collections. 

In food studies, Rachel's research interests include food ethics and values, animal welfare, and community views on food and agriculture. For more details on these projects and to volunteer to participate in our research, please see the Food Values Research Group page.

Rachel also was the team leader of the ARC-funded Hostel Stories Linkage project in collaboration with the Migration Museum and in partnership with the cities of Charles Sturt and Port Adelaide Enfield, State Records, and the Vietnamese Community in Australia (SA). For more information, see the Hostel Stories project page.
