Lauren Riggs is the Research Coordinator for the Centre for Digital Humanities and Multilateralism (CDHM) at the Geneva Graduate Institute supporting integration activities among its research axes and conducting ad hoc research. She earned a PhD in the Department of Anthropology and Sociology (ANSO) at the Geneva Graduate Institute in 2021 with a thesis examining the processes by which biomedical inquiries and (re)definitions of aging are increasingly enmeshed with longstanding ontological debates over the static or processual nature of ‘being’. Her communications career comprised academic, agency, non-profit, IO, government and media sectors. Her academic work deals with intersections of technoscience, history of science and technology, philosophy, biology, and elite studies. Her research interests at the CDHM dovetail with analyses of technocracy in relation to International Geneva.
