About Us
The UCHastings Institute for Innovation Law is dedicated to promoting Data-Driven Law-Making, allowing courts, legislators, and regulators to make informed decisions using reliable and objective analysis. Focusing on Innovation, the Institute provides a trusted source of high-quality, substantive academic research that will help create the tools and knowledge necessary to cultivate a culture of innovation. The Institute also has several substantive programs under its umbrella, including the Privacy + Technology Project; the Law & Bioscience Project, and the Startup Clinics—in which students help with legal work for early stage technology and bioscience companies under the pro bono supervision of attorneys at major law firms. With 10 faculty members, The Institute is directed by Professor Robin Feldman.
