【Aug. 5, 2025/Hybrid/Pre-Registration Required】ELSI/RRI Seminar, “Law and Ethics of Emerging Neuroscience,” Phoenix International Center, MIRAI CREA, Hiroshima University

Neuroscience has made remarkable progress since the beginning of this century. This field holds the potential to elucidate the causes of neurological diseases and alleviate the suffering of patients. However, it may also raise various ethical, legal, and social concerns regarding the extent to which it is permissible to record and analyze—or “read”—human brain activities, as the brain is considered to be a special organ deeply connected to our mind and personality.

This seminar aims to provide a platform for understanding the latest discourse about the global governance of emerging neuroscience, particularly in the field of “neurolaw,” and foster discussions about the future of society we can and should aspire to build through cutting-edge neurotechnology.
