Protecting Privacy: A Case Against State Interference Through Restitution of Conjugal Rights

Recent judicial decisions have transformed our understanding of privacy, autonomy, and equality; significantly so post the Supreme Court’s Puttaswamy I judgement. In Puttaswamy I, the Court reaffirmed privacy as a fundamental right grounded in the ideas of autonomy and dignity.

Harnwegsinfekten auf der Spur

Etwa jede zweite Frau erkrankt einmal in ihrem Leben an einer Harnwegsinfektion. Meist ist das uropathogene Bakterium Escherichia coli (UPEC) die Ursache. Der übermäßige Einsatz von Antibiotika in den vergangenen vier Jahrzehnten hat dazu geführt, dass Bakterienstämme wie UPEC vermehrt gegen die gängigen Antibiotika resistent geworden sind, was insbesondere die Behandlung der häufig wiederkehrenden Harnwegsinfektionen erschwert. Daher werden dringend neue alternative Behandlungsmöglichkeiten benötigt.

薛虹教授在数字论坛主题发言

2022年5月17日下午,由中国互联网协会、中国文字著作权协会指导,互联网实验室、浙江大学传媒与国际文化学院、浙江理工大学网络法研究所等单位主办的知网案解析与全面治理之道专家研讨会(数字论坛第231期)顺利举行。全国10余位专家学者围绕“知网案解析与全面治理之道”的主题进行了深入研讨。

薛虹教授受邀作主题发言,观点发表于《长江日报》2022年5月18日。

Déontologie : approche comparée FR / QC (Professions réglementées – Professions non-réglementées – Numérisation des professions)

Rarement enseignée lors des premières années d’étude en droit, la déontologie constitue pourtant le ciment des professions en général et des professions réglementées en particulier. À l’heure d’une collaboration plus étroite entre toutes les professions juridiques et du regroupement acté de certaines d’entre elles, la déontologie est mise à l’épreuve.
