SAMTEK is a hub for research and dialogue on technology and society. It brings together social sciences, law, technology, and the life sciences to study how emerging technologies are developed, governed, and adopted responsibly. The hub will strengthen interdisciplinary collaboration and contribute to UiO’s international profile in technology and society research.

The hub is a collaboration between research environments at the Faculty of Law and TIK Centre for Technology, Innovation and Culture at the Faculty of Social Sciences, and is led by TIK.
