Dr Peta Cook is a Senior Lecturer of Sociology (Ageing and Dementia Studies) at the Wicking Dementia Research and Education Centre. She is a sociologist of knowledge, with a specific focus on ageing, medical science, health and illness, and identity and embodiment. Her research is primarily concerned with what forms of knowledge count and why; how this knowledge is produced; and personal mean-making and experiences of ageing, and health and illness. She has wide expertise in qualitative research methods, including interviews, focus groups, observation, discourse analysis, and photography. Experienced at sole and collaborative research, Peta frequently works in disciplinary and cross-disciplinary teams.
Biography
Peta joined the University of Tasmania in January 2009, prior to which she was a lecturer at the Queensland University of Technology (2007-2008). Her contributions to sociological scholarship have focused on addressing pressing social issues and problems raised by controversial medical sciences, widely experienced health conditions, and ageing. This includes examining how knowledge production affects medical practices and decision-making, and what makes people's lives meaningful.
Peta's contributions to understanding the social aspects of xenotransplantation (animal-to-human transplantation) have been acknowledged through an invited article for Sociology Compass and an invited presentation at the World Health Organization in 2012. She has also been a Visiting Researcher at the Brocher Foundation and the Princess Alexandra Hospital (Brisbane). Peta received the 2018 Vice Chancellor’s Award for Outstanding Community Engagement and was a 2019 Finalist in the Tasmanian Community Achievement Awards. This recognition emerged from her community-based project and research engagement focusing on age-friendly communities, addressing ageism, and increasing social awareness of the needs and wants of older Australians.
Peta has expertise in researching delicate and sensitive topics, which she manages with sensitivity, compassion and care. This has included working with people who have chronic and life-threatening illnesses. She has extensive experience in arts-based research methods as well as semi-structured and unstructured in-depth interviewing, having conducted well over 250 interviews with a diversity of individuals and population groups.

Expertise
Peta uses theoretical and empirical approaches to examine how meaning and knowledge are generated, privileged, and marginalised; how this impacts practices and decision-making; and what people who are ageing, or are ill, experience, want and need. She has expertise in the following topics:
- The social perceptions of ageing
- The personal experiences of ageing
- The personal management and experience of illness, such as cancer
- The social acceptance and integration of cosmetic enhancement technologies, such as Botox and cosmetic surgery
- The social problems and impacts of ageism
Research Themes
Peta's research aligns with the University's research themes of Better Health and Creativity, Culture and Society. Her interests in the sociologies of medicine, health, illness, ageing, embodiment and identity, are focused on exploring and analysing what forms of knowledge count and why, the implications of this (including on decision-making practices such treatment pathways), and how people make sense of themselves and their life. Her research is also focused on understanding and empowering individuals in their healthcare choices and experiences, and their ageing.
Her current projects, which include collaborative and transdisciplinary research, are:
- Cancer treatment and care, particularly for older populations
- Identity and mean-making in the lives of older people
- The social challenges, changes and consequences related to Botox treatments
- Examining attitudes about ageing and older people, including ageism

Reclaiming the self: How do older people perceive and experience their ageing? (2015)$13,932
- Description
- This research aims to make a significant contribution to the sociology of ageing and critical gerontology. It will empower older people to record and capture their sense of self, identity and embodiment. Consequently, the project will confront the potential discrepancies in how older age is interpreted and portrayed as compared to how older people perceive and portray themselves. This will provide novel understandings of what it means to be an older person. As older people form a significant proportion of Tasmanias population, it is integral to understand what it means to be an older person in this social context. Therefore, the research values older people for who they are by confronting and lifting the social mask that has fallen over ageing. These three forms of research significance directly relate to the studys three aims: 1) to understand older peoples embodiment, perceptions and experiences of their ageing in Tasmania; 2) to empower older people to document their lives and experiences from their own perspective; 3) to increase the visibility of older people and their experiences of ageing.
