This project examines how emerging intimate technologies within reproductive health come to be shared. The use of these technologies is often studied at an individual level, but we see an urgent need for research to engage with the social context of ‘use’. Our research is geared to understand how people come to share – and experience the sharing of – intimate technologies as well as how interpersonal relationships are entangled with their use.
