We are pleased to announce that the ‘Augmented Agency ∝ Augmented Fairness Forum’, an in-person 2-day forum consists of expert participants working in different areas of core technology relating to human enhancement is now open for registration.

The forum consists of expert participants working in different areas of core technology relating to human enhancement. This includes natural science subjects such as digital health, sports science, medicalisation, biosciences and genomic sciences, and also includes related experts in the social sciences, arts and humanities.

Through a combination of short presentation and creative methods, participants will share and reflect on how their work could reshape human agency. It offers the chance for cross-comparison between different technologies to identify patterns and shared challenges on agency and social justice. The aim is to identify individual or collective future research agendas, and enable transdisciplinary collaborations.

The project is hosted by the Centre of Global Sciecne and Epistemic Justice (GSEJ), at the University of Kent. It is led by Dr Joy Y. Zhang in collaboration with Dr. Simon Bailey, Prof. Lubomira Radoilska, Dr. Jennifer Leigh and Dr. Aparajita Mukhopadhyay.
