It was great to have Jack Stilgoe as the first speaker of our fall colloquia at KAIST STP!

📣Very excited to be leading this project about disaster education funded by Economic and Social Research Council. I look forward to working with Southampton Education School 이화여자대학교 KAIST 과학기술정책대학원 STP colleagues for this important collaboration. More information to follow soon.


More news on STS in the White House: The new Office of Science & Technology Policy chief of staff recently received a PhD at HASTS / brb working on the history of the digital divide as a civil rights issue. He previously worked in then-VP Biden's office. whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-upda…


Here's a new op-ed by our Co-I Chihyung Jeon KAIST 과학기술정책대학원 STP published in the Hankyoreh, documenting engineering students' reflections during the visit to the Sewol Ferry Disaster site. (Written in Korean, but Google Translate works decently!) hani.co.kr/arti/opinion/c…

Day 4 at #disasterhaggyo - Chihyung Jeon talks about his experience of teaching an undergrad course on the Sewol Ferry and engineers, including a field trip to the ship.




Excited to announce that the Institute of Gerontology at King's College London is hosting a screening of the documentary "Hug Me Tight" directed by Heesun Shin & Chihyung Jeon. A discussion session with Chihyung Jeon will follow.

This response from Professor Toby Walsh FAA FTSE is understandable and reasonable. #Robots are just THINGS; they are not and should not ever be PERSONS. The only problem is that this binary distinction--person vs. thing--seems to be failing in the face of #robots and #AI. mitpress.mit.edu/9780262546157
