| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to construct a framework for the discussion of ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) in interdisciplinary research, based on the boundary between information technology (IT) and life science. We obtained two major results. First, we envisioned the “participatory technology assessment (TA) in a two-stage model” as a new methodology for participatory technology assessment (pTA) in boundary areas. The second result is an ELSI study on blockchain technology. Meanwhile, this new technology, which exists in the boundary region between IT and the economy, is among the foremost current ELSI issues. We published the results of this study as a single-author book.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究によって、学術的意義としては、複数の学問領域が関係する際の参加型テクノロジーアセスメントの実践方法として、"Participatory technology assessment(TA) in a two-stage model"(二段階参加型TAモデル)を新たに構想するに至った。さらに、新興技術である"Blockchain"技術について、先駆的なELSI的検討を行い、その成果を一般の人々も入手しやすい新書の形態で出版することにより、研究成果をリアルタイムで社会に還元することができた。
