Ethics week: Session EC Dual Use: Military & Misuse

1st December: Session Ethics Committee Dual Use, Military Use and Misuse of Research (12:00-14:00)

 

Presenter: Professor Alexander Mattelaer. Scientific research has an important role to play in our changing and often tense world. New technologies and research in politically sensitive fields brings potential benefits but also risks. During this session, Professor Mattelaer will explain the political context in which sensitive research takes place. The presentation will be followed by breakout sessions in which we will analyse several case studies of military and dual use research.
