Research Stay Report by Ivan Vidakovi\u0107<\/span> <\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From April 1, 2024, to May 31, 2024, I had the privilege of participating in a research stay at the Digital Justice Center (DJC) of the University of Wroclaw. Over these two months, I had the chance to deeply engage with my doctoral research while being part of a welcoming academic community. From the moment I arrived, the openness and support shown by the DJC members, especially Karolina Kremens, Kaja Kowalczewska, Wojciech Jasi\u0144ski, made me feel at home. Their friendly and warm academic embrace created a highly conducive environment for both academic work and personal growth. This set the foundation for what turned out to be an extremely enriching experience, not just academically but also personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Academic and Research Contributions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During my time at DJC, although I wasn\u2019t formally enrolled in courses to gain ECTS credits, I participated in two English-taught classes: EU Criminal Law<\/em> and Criminal Procedure and Courts<\/em>. These courses significantly contributed to broadening my perspective on these topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the key highlights of my stay was delivering a 90-minute lecture on April 16, 2024, titled \u201cThe Legal Perspective of (Excessive) Use of Pre-trial Detention.\u201d This experience allowed me to share my insights on pre-trial detention practices and engage in productive discussions with students, which provided valuable feedback and fresh perspectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On April 17, 2024, I participated in a doctoral seminar led by Professor Thomas Weigend, where I presented my research on \u201cTechnology-Driven Shifts in Criminal Procedure: Balancing Efficiency and Defense Rights.\u201d The feedback I received during this session was invaluable, and it opened up new avenues for further refining my research. I also had the opportunity to attend a lecture by Professor Weigend on \u201cCriminal Liability of and for Automated Weapon Systems\u201d, which was incredibly relevant to my ongoing research on the legal implications of new technologies in criminal law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conferences and Workshops<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During my stay, I also took part in several significant academic events. On April 11, 2024, I co-presented a paper titled \u201cTechnology-Driven Changes in Criminal Procedure: Balancing Efficiency and Defense Rights\u201d with Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ante Novokmet and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sun\u010dana Roksandi\u0107 at a round table organized by the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts (HAZU) online. This event, which focused on the regulation of AI within the European Union, offered me a platform to engage with experts in the field and further explore the complex legal challenges AI presents in the criminal justice system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, I participated in two international workshops focusing on alternatives to pre-trial detention:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
