Lawrence Berkeley
National Laboratory's Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues in Science
Program
Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory's ELSI in Science program is a pilot project designed to
stimulate discussions on the implications of selected areas of
scientific research. These modules probably will be most useful to
educators and students at the middle school through high school level.
However, we hope that other visitors will find the information
interesting and useful as well.

The Society on Social Implications of Technology (SSIT) of the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has about 2000 members
worldwide. The scope of the society includes such issues as
environmental, health and safety implications of technology; engineering
ethics and professional responsibility; history of electrotechnology;
technical expertise and public policy; peace technology; and social
issues related to energy, information technology and telecommunications.
SSIT publishes a quarterly journal, IEEE Technology and Society
Magazine, and sponsors periodic conferences entitled The International
Symposium on Technology and Society (ISTAS).
