 Welcome to Novel Tech Ethics |
 |
|
 The Novel Tech Ethics research team led by Françoise Baylis and based at Dalhousie University, focuses on novel technologies that promise transformation. These technologies challenge us to explore the social, political, and cultural understandings of the self, and to reexamine our ethical obligations to others, including those with whom we will not co-exist.
Currently, the Novel Tech Ethics research team has a particular focus on neural, genetic, and reproductive technologies.
Grant-funded projects in these areas address the concerns of the individual, the community and the species. Academic exchanges, public discussion and debate contribute to our understanding of these issues and also help to inform public policy.
A strong commitment to knowledge transfer and public education is an important aspect of our work. Visit our Events pages.
