12 December 2023

In June 2024, Seliha Buelens will finish her master’s degree in law at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. During an Erasmus programme of six months in Toulouse (2022), where courses mainly focused on digital law, she decided to deepen her knowledge of artificial intelligence and its interplay with law. Thus, she is now enrolled in a Master’s of Law in Law and Technology, which focuses on the interaction between artificial intelligence and the law. Her master’s thesis discusses dark patterns and fairness. In conclusion, she is deeply intrigued by the social relevance and multifaceted nature of the relationship between law and technology.

Seliha Buelens will be contributing to the Smart Law Hub’s work by carrying out research mainly in the framework of the Rules as Code-project, which aims to develop digital-ready legislation, all while ensuring citizen participation, in the domains of urban planning and housing policies.
