Fondation Brocher | Xiaojie Li

L’utilité de ce genre d’institutions est incontestable. Car le monde moderne est sans cesse confronté à des innovations, médicales ou autres, qui s’appliquent à l’homme ou à son environnement proche. Ce lieu est donc nécessaire pour préparer la matière intellectuelle qui sera ensuite transférée aux citoyens afin que ceux- ci puissent se prononcer quant à la légitimité de ces innovations.

Dr. Xiaojie Li's research focuses on the benefits and potential of China's health code system in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. In her recent work titled 'Not just about privacy: compromise values in China's Health Code systems', which is currently under review, she demonstrates that the Health Code system holds great promise for health governance during emergencies, and public health agencies are recognizing this potential. However, to fully realize the benefits of the Health Code system and avoid potential harm, it is essential to address both the ethical and technical aspects of the system.

In her 2022 paper titled 'Research under China's personal information law', Dr. Li provides a comprehensive analysis of the impact of the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) on ongoing and future transnational scientific research. Through a legal and ethical examination of the PIPL's provisions, she presents a general overview of how the law affects scientific research and suggests feasible solutions to overcome the challenges brought about by the PIPL to transnational scientific research.

Overall, Dr. Li's research highlights the significance of the Health Code system and the need to ensure that it operates ethically and technically sound. Additionally, her work on the PIPL sheds light on the ethical and legal challenges that transnational scientific research may face under the new legislation and proposes practical solutions to navigate these challenges.
