LPE Virtual Speaker Series: Technology, Policy & Law during COVID-19

The Internet of Things now includes an Internet of Bodies (IoB)—a network of humans whose bodily integrity and functionality rely, in part, on the Internet and related technologies. With these human bodies able to produce data, legal questions will not be limited solely to individual level questions of autonomy and optional self-augmentation. COVID-19 tracking and tracing applications present the latest examples of technologies raising this broader set of legal and policy questions.

SPEAKER: Andrea Matwyshyn, founding director Penn State Policy Innovation Lab of Tomorrow (PILOT), Professor and Associate Dean for Innovation & Technology at Penn State Law, Professor College of Engineering
