About
Vlad is a PhD researcher in the DigIDeas project. Prior he has studied Philosophy of Science, Technology and Society at the University of Twente and software engineering at the technical universities of Eindhoven and Bucharest. During his technical studies and engineering practice he became interested in the ethical and social aspects of technology design and use, as well as how technology and society mutually influence and shape one another. His thesis at the University of Twente analyzed the structure of ethical debates around new and emerging science and technology, with a case study focused on the converging technologies debate. Within the DigIDeas project, Vlad examines the ethical and social issues at the intersection between new technological developments in ubiquitous computing and policing practices.
