“THE LAW, ECONOMICS & ENGINEERING OF ADVANCED MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES”: 17-22 JANUARY 2022

 

Technological innovation in healthcare needs to conform to a complex normative matrix. In both legal and scientific education, it is essential to convey the importance of a cross-disciplinary approach and introduce a qualified public of learners to the most relevant competences in this field. This course—designed as an experiment in cross-fertilization between Law, Economics, and Biomedical Engineering—offers a substantive introduction to these
competences.

Participants will earn an understanding of the process of development, testing, marketing and diffusion of bioengineered
health care applications within a European legal framework, with reference in particular to:

(i) reduce liability risks, ensure compliance with relevant regulations, standards, and extant responsible research and
innovation (RRI) requirements;
(ii) embed fundamental rights protection within the development process of biotechnological innovation from research to
application;
(iii) adopt IPRs valorisation approach, identify the most appropriate business strategy and market placement.

Participants will join small cross-disciplinary teams. Each team will examine a case study, based on the problems faced by researchers and professionals in developing biotechnological applications.

All the activities will be held on line, on Microsoft Teams.
