This event, organised by the University of Amsterdam, delves into critical approaches to digital regulation in the EU. Plixavra Vogiatzoglou (Postdoctoral Researcher at the Amsterdam Center for International Law and the Institute for Information Law) examines the concept of EU digital sovereignty and how it relates to the promotion of emerging technologies and EU standards worldwide. Hannah van Kolfschooten (researcher and lecturer at the Law Centre for Health and Life) will explore the ethical and legal dilemmas AI poses in healthcare. Together, their research interrogates how EU digital policy and regulation seeks to safeguard citizens’ rights but also raises profound questions about power dynamics and responsibilities in our increasingly automated world.
