Japanese: Participation Registration for Kyoto Conference 2023 [JN]
Conference Overview :
The Conference will be held on September 16th and 17th, 2023, in hybrid format. This conference is part of a joint project “Bioethics Research: BRIDGES:BKY” (commissioned by the Wellcome Trust) with researchers from the University of Bristol in the UK and Yonsei University in Korea, and aims to promote international exchange with graduate students and researchers from Japan, the UK and Korea. On the day of the conference, simultaneous interpretation in Japanese and English will be provided for some sessions as a consideration for diversity. Please note that due to budget constraints, interpretation will be limited to these two languages.
Conference Theme :
The development of science and technology has greatly transformed our lives and society, and the pace of technological innovation promises further disruption yet to come. In the field of bioethics, which deals with diverse problems facing modern society, the impacts of science and technology cannot be ignored. More than ever, it is important to create venues for open and informed dialogue concerning the nature, justification and implementation of technologies that impact on people’s quality of life. Given this situation, Kyoto University has decided to hold an international conference on the theme of “Bridging Science and Ethics.” We invited presentations from graduate students and early career researchers who conduct bioethics research related to science and ethics. Additionally, we have invited prominent researchers in this field to serve as keynote speakers.
Conference Program :
Day 1 (16th September): Presentations by Early-Career Researchers and Postgraduates
Day 2 (17th September): Keynote Lectures
