June 3, 2021 - The School of
Bioethics of the
Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum,
Neurobioethics Study Group, the
BrainCircleItalia organize
two days of reflection dedicated to the
post-pandemic,
ethics,
law,
statistics, and
vaccines anti-COVID.
Many
questions and multiple
issues will be addressed:
- surveillance and individual control through biometric recognition, which states could maintain and implement even after the epidemic crisis;
- the role of the digital revolution, as a new form of coexistence between men that can redefine the current concepts of privacy and freedom;
- the redefinition of our identity spaces, reshaped by these invisible threats.
We are living a very complex historical moment, on one hand the
best era to be able to face this
Pandemic clinically and
technologically, on the other hand the
Coronavirus that, like a "storm", is
unmasking our
vulnerabilities, leaving uncovered those superfluous securities with which we have built our agendas, our projects, our habits, and priorities.
A
Panel of the highest
scientific and
cultural background (including
