Changing Role

In a wide-ranging address to the Diplomates, Professor Marescaux of the Institute for Research into Cancer of the Digestive System (IRCAD)/European Institute of Telesurgery (EITS) considers the nature of surgery and the changing role of the surgeon in modern times. The surgeon, he argues, operates on the borderlines with many other disciplines, from engineering and technology, to ethics and the law, to art and philosophy. Despite the rapidly changing face of medical technology, he argues persuasively for the indispensable role of the surgeon in providing compassion and care.

Changing Role

Today, the practice of nursing and the education of nurses are going through the most exciting period in modern times. Throughout a long and turbulent history, nursing has faced almost insurmountable difficulties. In the main, these have stemmed from an attempt to maintain stability while conducting innovation, and from an attempt to change while retaining the useful part of the old. But to their credit, nurses have attempted to keep pace with the needs made by a rapidly changing social structure. It is these present needs that now should force nursing into a new, enlarged, and more crucial role in the health professions.

Changing Role

The aim of the article is to examine the changing role of regulation in a digital economy based on data. Inspiration of the study is based on the latest concepts of regulating digital platforms (BigTech), literature in the field of law and economics, systemic analysis of law, practice and compliance, regulatory innovations. The law should be technologically neutral. The problem consists in emphasizing the regulation of services, taking into account the legal context of innovation: competition protection, prevention of misuse of market power, e.g. in the case of digital platforms operating on two- (multi-)sided markets. However, the rights, often adopted in an analogue era, must also keep up with technology. It is a novelty to emphasize the problem of supporting the law by code or transforming the law into code, supervision over the implementation of algorithms based on artificial intelligence, as well as redefine the role of law as a technology management instrument.
