Center for Technological Responsibility, Reimagination and Redesign

The latest cover story from Conduit, the Brown CS annual magazine, is a close look at Brown's new Center for Technological Responsibility, Reimagination and Redesign (CNTR), whose mission is to redefine computer science education, research, and technology to center the needs, problems, and aspirations of all, especially those that technology has left behind.

This December’s Conduit issue, published annually by Brown’s Department of Computer Science, highlights the Center for Technological Responsibility, Re-imagination, and Redesign (CNTR)’s faculty and student research that recenters technology around human needs.

The Paragon Policy Fellowship, co-led by Brown senior Jenn Wang and advised by CNTR Director Suresh Venkatasubramanian, connects students to local governments to work on tech policy issues and plans to develop a playbook for building lasting talent pipelines.

Researchers at the CNTR published two papers at the 2024 AAAI-ACM Conference on AI, Ethics, and Society.
