- Neuroscience research has been expanding, providing new insights into brain and nervous system function and potentially transformative technological applications. In recent years, there has been a flurry of prominent international scientific academies and intergovernmental organizations calling for engagement with different publics on social, ethical, and regulatory issues related to neuroscience and neurotechnology advances. Neuroscientific activities and outputs are value-laden; they reflect the cultural, ethical, and political values that are prioritized in different societies at a given time and impact a variety of publics beyond the laboratory. The focus on engagement in neuroscience recognizes the breadth and significance of current neuroscience research whilst acknowledging the need for a neuroethical approach that explores the epistemic and moral values influencing the neuroscientific agenda. The field of neuroethics is characterized by its focus on the social, legal, and philosophical implications of neuroscience including its impact on cultural assumptions about the cognitive experience, identity, consciousness, and decision-making. Here, we outline a proposal for neuroethics engagement that reflects an enhanced and evolving understanding of public engagement with neuroethical issues to create opportunities to share ideation, decision-making, and collaboration in neuroscience endeavors for the benefit of society. We demonstrate the synergies between public engagement and neuroethics scholarship and activities that can guide neuroethics engagement.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Increasingly, national governments across the globe are prioritizing investments in neuroscience. Currently, seven active or in-development national-level brain research initiatives exist, spanning four continents. Engaging with the underlying values and ethical concerns that drive brain research across cultural and continental divides is critical to future research. Culture influences what kinds of science are supported and where science can be conducted through ethical frameworks and evaluations of risk. Neuroscientists and philosophers alike have found themselves together encountering perennial questions; these questions are engaged by the field of neuroethics, related to the nature of understanding the self and identity, the existence and meaning of free will, defining the role of reason in human behavior, and more. With this Perspective article, we aim to prioritize and advance to the foreground a list of neuroethics questions for neuroscientists operating in the context of these international brain initiatives.

Conceptual conundrums for neuroscience
- 2023

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Offering conceptual clarity can be a difficult task when scientists are increasingly called to keep up with the broader ecosystem of science communication such as social media and trends to incorporate persuasive writing in federally funded grants. We offer that the inclusion of diverse stakeholder voices and collaborative input that extends beyond the lab would better support the connections between science and society's challenges and opportunities and maximize the potential of science to do good.

Mind the Gap: Lessons Learned from Neurorights
- 2022

Ingår i: Science & Diplomacy. - : American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). - 2167-8626.
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article we focus on the issue of whether neuroerights are necessary to protect individual and societal interests impacted by emerging technologies and their uses. We raise questions regarding who should define neurorights, and which legal structures are best suited to embody and advance them. Experts in the neurotechnology and neurorights space disagree on fundamental aspects of these issues in proposals for neurorights, even on key definitions. We offer an overview of definitions and debates, and then outline some issues raised by the Chilean right to neuroprotection.
