Association's annual Technology Day took on ethical issues as they
related to current research at MIT. Lectures from faculty at
five MIT Schools were presented at the 2003 event covering topics such
as public housing, political advertising, stem cell research, global
economics and nanotechnology and the soldier of the
future<b>. </b> This is the first of the five lectures, look for
the remaining ones to be presented on MIT World this summer.
