by Northeastern UniversityThis summer, Northeastern led a pilot doctoral fellowship program to support scholarly study of social and ethical issues associated with emerging technologies. The program was funded under a multi-year National Science Foundation (NSF) project on nanotechnology and public policy that is directed by Christopher Bosso, professor of public policy and associate dean of the School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs. Bosso brought together six advanced doctoral students and early-career researchers for 10 weeks to work on their research, learn from one another and produce individual papers on the project for future publication.
