Shaping the New Human-Technology Frontier: Current Research at BU
Research on Tap: Meet, Greet, and Learn Series
Abstract: Advances in interdisciplinary science and engineering promise to bring about a world in which technologies—sensors, communication, computation, and intelligence—are embedded around, on, and in us. This Research on Tap session will bring together faculty from across BU who develop technology that directly impacts human health and function, study technology’s impact on human behavior and social organizations, and consider the implications of new technologies on privacy and security.
