LAST-JD Ph.D. Program
JOINT INTERNATIONAL DOCTORAL DEGREE IN LAW, SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
Online at http://www.last-jd.eu/
===================================================================

The Joint International Doctoral Degree in Law, Science and Technology
is an interdisciplinary integrated program designed to address the new
legal, socio-ethical, and technical challenges posed by the
information society and the newly emerging technologies.

The program covers three different research fields with its curricula:
* Bioethics and Biolaw, which looks at the legal and ethical issues
arising in connection with advances in biology and medicine;
* ICT Law, addressing the legal risks and opportunities in ICT; and
* Legal Informatics, an area of informatics that takes law as its
subject matter, developing techniques with which to manage the legal
domain.

This program promotes European excellence, innovation, and
competitiveness in such critical legal and ethical fields as the
regulation of privacy,genomics and biobanks, e-government, e-health
and e-commerce, the right of free speech on the Internet and
intellectual property rights (IPR) with respect to the new
technologies. Moreover, the program furthers the design of new
software to support the legal profession, including systems based on
the explicit representation of laws and regulations in a computable
form, as well as systems for checking compliance with international,
European, and national legal frameworks and systems in AI & Law.
