BORGES, Raul Elton Araújo; SILVA, Mercês de Fátima dos Santos    MELO, Lucas Pereira de. Concerning languages, network socialities and HIV/AIDS: scientific dissemination, subjectivities and life enhancement in a Brazilian blog. []. , 27, 1, pp.96-115.   28--2023.

Based on data produced through digital ethnography, we analyze how the interaction in a Brazilian blog allowed the production of subjectivities and agency services mediated by biomedical scientific practices directed to HIV/AIDS. The narratives highlighted scientific dissemination, sharing of information and experiences as elements in the processes of normalization and enhancement of life with HIV/AIDS. In addition, the study unveiled the access and sharing of biomedical and scientific information on the blog as a facilitator in the production and development of expert patients and the pharmaceuticalization of life as a consequence of the experience of living with HIV/AIDS.
