【Overview】
In recent years, there has been significant progress in the development of technologies for recording of and intervening in brain and nervous activity, called “neurotechnology.” While neurotechnology has a wide range of potential usage, from basic neuroscientific research to medical applications and even to entertainment, it also raises a number of ethical concerns. In this workshop, such ethical issues will be examined through international collaboration of ethicists to guide future development of neurotechnology.
