The Harnessing Transformational Technologies symposium series brings together subject-matter experts to elucidate a specific transformational technology, showcase the opportunities it creates for the global population, explore its ethical, legal, and social implications, preview its future developments, and discuss related issues for national and global security.
LANL partnered with the Committee on Science, Technology, and Law of the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NAS-CSTL) to develop a series of symposia that explore emerging technologies and their ability to transform society, with an emphasis on science and law.
HTT SYMPOSIUM GOAL
Our goal is to inform, encourage dialogue, facilitate research opportunities, and convey both the opportunities and risks resulting from transformational technologies. Our symposia are aimed at a diverse population of academics, research scientists, industrialists, governments, policy makers, legal experts, and social scientists.
