These include biotechnology, nanotechnology, neurotechnologies and the internet.

A framework for the evaluation of emerging technologies

The NZLF's vision for the Centre's work – led by Director Professor Colin Gavaghan – is to encourage the formulation of a framework for the systematic and comprehensive evaluation of emerging technologies, and to build New Zealand's legal and policy capability in these developing areas.
