Welcome to the Sara Fine Institute Web Site

Welcome to the web site of The Sara Fine Institute (SFI). The Institute is dedicated to examining the ways technology impacts interpersonal communications and relationships with family, friends, professional colleagues, governing bodies, health care providers, and educational institutions. SFI Faculty Affiliates conduct research on social, political, ethical, medical, technical, and educational issues via innovative research projects and campus-community partnerships.
