Neuroethics Working Group

Building on the accomplishments of the first generation of Neuroethics at the IBI, the revitalized Working Group will focus on currently underexplored topics in the neuroethics debate such as issues of global justice in access to neurotechnology, the neuroethics of mental health, neurodivergence, bias prevention and inclusion in the compilation of datasets in neuroscience, environmental neuroethics, and a data governance framework for brain data that is culturally-aware and legally compatible with all brain initiatives.
