This year’s virtual symposium will focus on post-pandemic privacy implications concerning health care, technology and cybersecurity, and will include two panels and a roundtable discussion. The event is co-hosted by the Kansas Journal of Law & Public Policy and PrivacyPraxis.
Panel One’s focus is on the post-pandemic reshaping of the health care system and issues regarding telehealth, technology and social disparities. Panel Two’s focus is on post-pandemic technology concerns regarding security, surveillance, biometric and location data, and other technology-related privacy implications. During a roundtable discussion, panelists will discuss the disproportionate impact of the pandemic in racially marginalized communities.
