基因醫學風尖浪口的倫理省思西元1990 年起，由美國領銜多國科學家通力合作之「人類基因組計畫（Human Genome Project, HGP）」，進行人類基因組圖譜繪製的偉大工程。團隊在2003 年宣布完成92% 的定序，然而由於技術上的限制，所缺失的8% 在經過近20 年的努力後，終於由「端粒到端粒聯盟（T2T）團隊」宣布補齊，完成了人類基因組的完整測序解碼，發表在2022 年3 月Science 期刊 。計畫進行之初，深具遠見的計畫領導者Watson 教授即主張，基因醫學所涉及之倫理法律社會意涵與衝擊（ethical, legal, social implication/impact, ELSI）必需同時被檢驗，因此5% 的研究經費必須投入ELSI 之研究。如此前瞻而跨領域之大政方針，啟動了歐美學界對於基因醫學相關倫理法律社會問題研究之風潮，當時在我國主持「國科會基因體醫學國家型科技計畫National Research Program for Genomic Medicine」的陳定信院士認同此理念並將其納入規劃，亦帶動了台灣的人文社會學者趕上這個研究趨勢。2012 年之後「CRISPR（Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats）」與「次世代基因定序（next-generation sequencing）」技術陸續發展，大大地推升基因編輯與診斷的應用性，也為基因治療研究開啟新篇章，衍生之新治療也進入臨床試驗階段（例如運用於鐮刀型貧血、地中海貧血、兒童罕病等）。2020 年起武漢肺炎全球肆虐，以腺病毒為載體研發而成的AZ 疫苗以及以mRNA 技術研發而成的Moderna 與BNT 疫苗更是樹建其工、大大減少染疫者重症比例與死亡人數，讓大流行疫情趨向緩解。2001 年起，筆者受到基因體計畫「倫理法律社會影響組（Ethical , legal social impact, ELSI）」召集人之邀請，提出研究計畫申請並獲得委託執行，於是開啟了近20年的「基因醫學倫理」研究之路，期間獲得多次國科會與衛生署補助相關計畫，計畫執行過程中陸續發表相關論文成果，許多主題是環繞在「基因檢測倫理」此核心之上；因為儘管基因醫學之發展無遠弗屆，醫病互動與溝通過程中的「基因檢測與諮詢」仍為最重要之一環。筆者於是

The 2010s have seen an explosion in popularity of Chinese television featuring same-sex intimacies, LGBTQ-identified celebrities, and explicitly homoerotic storylines even as state regulations on “vulgar” and “immoral” content grow more prominent. This emerging “queer TV China” culture has generated diverse, cyber, and transcultural queer fan communities. Yet these seemingly progressive televisual productions and practices are caught between multilayered sociocultural and political-economic forces and interests.Taking “queer” as a verb, an adjective, and a noun, this volume counters the Western-centric conception of homosexuality as the only way to understand nonnormative identities and same-sex desire in the Chinese and Sinophone worlds. It proposes an analytical framework of “queer/ing TV China” to explore the power of various TV genres and narratives, censorial practices, and fandoms in queer desire-voicing and subject formation within a largely heteropatriarchal society.

During the early stages of its development, Taiwan’s New Literature was intimately connected with realism.The year 2022 is the one-hundredth anniversary of fiction writing in Taiwan, and also the one-hundredth anniversary of modernist literature in the English-speaking world. For the former, this is the one-hundredth anniversary of the publication of Chui Feng’s “Where Will She Go?” For the latter, it is the one-hundredth anniversary of the publication of James Joyce’s (1882–1941) novel Ulysses, and Anglo-American writer T. S. Eliot’s (1888–1965) poem The Waste Land. When the Alphabet Lab was first established, it also paid tribute to the contribution of modernism in the development of post-war Taiwan literature. In this special fiftieth issue on “Taiwan Fiction and ‘Realism,’” we once again identify and trace out the pathways and objectives of Taiwan’s writer apostles over the past one-hundred years.台灣新文學的發展，以追風的〈她要往何處去〉為濫觴，發表於1922年，至今剛好一百年。台灣新文學發軔時，歐美現代主義發展已達到高峰，台灣必然受到影響，可見現代主義與現實主義，

Agnes Pelton: Desert Transcendentalist will be the first survey of this under recognized American painter in over 22 years. Her distinctive paintings could be described as metaphysical landscapes rooted in the California desert near Cathedral City. Pelton chiefly drew on her own inspirations, superstitions, and beliefs to exemplify emotional states.The publication seeks to clarify the artist’s significance and role within the cannon of American Modernism but also against the legacy of European abstraction. It contextualizes her work against her contemporaries, Marsden Hartley and Georgia O’Keeffe, and their distinct versions of American spiritual modernism. Pelton’s highly symbolic paintings were inspired by religious sources ranging from Theosophy and Agni Yoga to the spiritual teachings of Dane Rudhyar and Will Levington Comfort.Over three decades she devoted herself to painting spiritual abstractions, which conveyed her “light message to the world.”
