In this course, we will explore ethical issues arising from research and advancements in brain science. In a series of case studies, we explore the ethics of cognitive enhancement, neuroimaging, AI-brain interfaces, and research on neurological disorders. We will learn to apply concepts like privacy, autonomy, consent, and justice to better articulate and respond to ethical concerns about research and technological developments related to the brain.
This course is limited to PSYCH, PSYED, and NEURO majors only.
For Neuroscience & Behavior and Psychology majors only for the first week of pre-registration. Then open to all in the second week.
