Research Interests
The
use of rhetorical analysis to explore the role of discourse in
processes of social change and stability, with particular focus on
issues of human reproduction and the impact of genetic technologies. My
current research focuses on understanding how the individual/biological
inputs to communication interface with the social/material inputs. See
the "Transilience" website at http://www.gly.uga.edu/railsback/Transilience/Transilience.html
