Program
The course aims to provide students with a basic knowledge of the relationship between technology and law.
Within this framework, specific attention will be devoted to the legal regulation of the processing of personal data, with particular regard to health data and, more generally, to data that may come to light in the context of medical treatments.
The lessons, through a presentation of the concepts of ‘person’, ‘technology’, ‘legal subject’, ‘data/legal good’ and through the analysis of the main national and supranational regulations, of the Italian Data Protection Authority' guidelines and of the most relevant rulings of the national Courts and of the Court of Justice of the European Union, aim at reconstructing an organic framework of the subject moving, mainly, within the following thematic areas:
- A brief outline of the relationship between law, science and technology in the epistemological evolution from the 19th century to the present;
- The nature, foundation and actual legal identity of the paradigms ‘person’, ‘subject’, ‘individuality’, ‘community’, ‘good’, ‘data’ and the potential problems given by their intersection;
- the General Data Protection Regulation, better known as “GDPR" (EU Regulation 2016/679), accompanied by Legislative Decree No. 101 of 10 August 2018;
- the Personal Data Protection Code set out in Legislative Decree No 196 of 30 June 2003, also known as the "Privacy Code";
- the rules on the processing of personal data contained in EU Regulation 2017/745 on medical devices and EU Regulation 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic devices;
- the European Data Strategy and the construction of a single data market: European data sharing and governance in the Data Governance Act (EU Regulation 2022/868); the Data Act (EU Regulation 2023/2854); the proposed regulation for a European Health Data Area.
