Welcome!
The Minnesota Journal of Law, Science & Technology is a cutting-edge and multidisciplinary journal with a focus on law, health, the sciences, and bioethics. Our journal is edited by faculty and students with a Faculty Editorial Advisory Board drawn from across the University of Minnesota.
MJLST tackles issues in intellectual property, technology policy and innovation, bioethics, and law and science, while maintaining a rigorous grounding in law, values, and policy. Formerly the Minnesota Intellectual Property Review, the journal is overseen and managed by the University's Consortium on Law and Values in Health, Environment & the Life Sciences.
