So what are we to do as humanities scholars who are sensitive to the questions of both technology and ideology? Can we — and should we — start to think infrastructurally?

… between prenatal genetic, environmental and epigenetic programming, a twin design has several advantages above other study designs: 1 By comparing MZ (genetically identical) with DZ (on average 50% of shared genes) twin pairs, genetic factors can be distinguished from environmental factors and their interaction can be tested. 2 Discrimination by the moment of splitting of a fertilized ovum, makes it possible to unravel the influence of the early prenatal environment. 3 A further … because genetic variation is ruled out. Barker twins Prenatal growth is determined by genetic factors and shaped by the intrauterine environment. Prenatal growth as expressed in birth weight has been shown to have a major impact on later health. This has been termed the developmental origins of adult health hypothesis (DOHaD a.k.a.
