For example\, we can ac quire and analyze traces of communication on the Internet such as social n etworking services (SNS)\, and with the development and spread of the Inte rnet of Things (IoT)\, also obtaine data on behavior\, and physical and ps ychological states directly from people.\n\nOn the other hand\, the broad types of utilization of medical data in society are being promoted for the treatment and care of lifestyle-related diseases and diseases having a ge netic basis as well as for reduction of medical cost in whole society. If such data will be utilized as learning data for so-called AI(Artificial In telligence)\, they are expected to served for doctors' diagnostic support and citizens' self-medication.\n\nHowever\, it is well known that there ar e widespread legal\, ethical\, and social problems in the acquisition\, st orage\, and utilization of such human-derived data. Research on humans in the field of medical biology is concerned about direct physical and mental invasion\, and its ethics and regulations have been steadily improved sin ce the Nuremberg Code. Also\, in research in the humanities and social sci ences such as psychology\, sociology\, history (oral history)\, and cultur al anthropology\, the problems of psychological and social harm due to imp roper handling of human-derived data have been disputed about and concerne d. It has also been known that legal measures such as the Personal Informa tion Protection Law and the Copyright Law cannot sufficiently protect the research subjects and related parties. It has also been concerned that if the research ethics of medical biology and psychology are strictly applied \, it may be difficult to carry out social science research.\n\nThis may s how that it is inappropriate to simply divert and apply regulations in fie lds with strict regulations and research ethics to other types of reserch in the other fields which are differed in the sort and degree of harms and in the research methodology from the former fields\, and\, on the other h and\,that researches in the latter fields without consideration for ELSI m ight bring other types of harms or offences to subjects and have an unexpe cted adverse sffect on society which exceeds the benefits the same subject s or society might receive. Such research without consideration of ELSI ma y lose the trust of the research subjects and the public\, and as a result \, it may hinder the acquisition and securing of research resources from w ider society and make it impossible to carry out research. Thus\, consider ation of ELSI in research is also indispensable for realizing sound resear ch\, building and maintaining widespread public trust in the research fiel d\, and creating a sustainable and healthy research environment.\n\nIn lig ht of the above situation\, this symposium will consider the current ELSI and education of wider range of human-subject research and research on dat a derived from humans in the field of electronic information and communica tion technology. In addition to the instructors in the "Kokoro-e" section of the MDASH program (Approved Program for Mathematics\, Data sicence and AI Smart Higher Education) of Open Univerisy of Japan(OUJ)\, we welcome re seachers in ethics and law related to the utilization of medical data and Internet research ethics. We comprehensively consider and discuss wider ra nge of problems on this are with them.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Social Implicat ions of Technology and Information Ethics\, IEICE\, Japan\n\nKyoto Univers ity\, Kyoto\, Japan\, Kyoto\, Japan LOCATION:Kyoto University\, Kyoto\, Japan\, Kyoto\, Japan ORGANIZER:ootani@kiui.ac.jp SEQUENCE:2 SUMMARY:"Is this human-subjects research?": Considering ethics of data scie nce and AI (artificial Intelligence) URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/312258 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>This symposium will bring together experts from a wide range of fields to discuss and examine the ethical\, legal\, and social issues of electronic information and communication technology w hich is developing as a science that handles data derived from humans.&nbs p\;</p>\n<p>With the development and diffusion of electronic information a nd communication technology in society\, various human-derived data is bec oming to be obtained by various methods besides conventional questionnaire surveys.
