LA Watch Party: Science Ethics and Policy Symposium

SPG will be hosting a watch party here in LA to participate in this symposium virtually, but together!

If you are interested in joining, please email uclascipolgroup@gmail.com or reach out to any of our officers over Slack!

Ethical responsibility lies at the intersection of science, technology, and modern society. At SEPS 2022, participants will deconstruct pressing issues surrounding AGRICULTURE, HEALTH, PRIVACY, GENE EDITING, and SPECIAL TOPICS.  Our event will bring together scientists, engineers, ethicists, sociologists, community leaders, and policymakers to understand the ethical impact of modern science. Through diverse panels, interactive skill-building workshops, and in-person networking opportunities, this symposium will explore the societal and ethical implications of new technologies and empower participants to engage with policy and their communities to enact change at all levels. We have specifically designed our symposium to highlight overlooked perspectives from communities that are directly impacted by technology, but whose voices have been historically silenced.
