Interdisciplinary Research in Technology and Society (IRTS) at Tufts University

We are a collective of scholars and researchers dedicated to exploring the complex interconnections between technology and society. Our work is situated at the intersection of computer science, ethics, policy, science & technology studies (STS), and information science.

Our group is committed to fostering a vibrant intellectual community through our weekly research meetings. These gatherings serve as a platform for collaborative dialogue, knowledge exchange, and community building.

We believe that understanding technology in its societal context is crucial in today’s interconnected world. We strive to produce research that not only advances academic understanding but also informs policy and practice, shaping a future where technology serves the common good.
