Conference organization "Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Neuroenhancement: Current Developments and Impact on the Individual and Society"

I will organize a conference on neuroenhancement, with my great colleagues Guido Mehlkop (UErfurt), Saskia Nagel (UAachen), and Dimitris Repantis (Charité). Questions will be: 1. What is currently possible with neurotechnology concerning cognitive enhancement (CE) purposes and which developments can be expected in the (near) future? 2. What are the associated ethical, legal, and social issues of using/refusing neurotechnology for cognitive enhancement? 3. Which empirical evidence underlines the extent of these issues (e.g., studies on prevalence, causes and consequences of cognitions and emotions on such neurotechnology, and of the respective use/non-use on the individual and society)? We will have 4 fabulous keynotes. [LINK]
