International Neuroethics Society (INS)

 

INS is an interdisciplinary group of scholars, scientists, clinicians and other professionals who share an interest in the social, legal, ethical and policy implications of advances in neuroscience. The late 20th century saw unprecedented progress in the basic sciences of mind and brain and in the treatment of psychiatric and neurologic disorders. Now, in the 21st century, neuroscience plays an expanding role in human life beyond the research lab and clinic.

In classrooms, courtrooms, offices and homes around the world, neuroscience is giving us powerful new tools for achieving our goals and prompting a new understanding of ourselves as social, moral and spiritual beings.

About

Welcome to the NEW Leaders!

Neuroethics as a field is intellectually diverse including scholars from neuroscience, ethics, philosophy, psychology, law, policy, and many more disciplines. The field explores how neuroscience informs our social value systems (e.g., using brain pathology to determine culpability for crimes) as well as the neuroscientific basis of our value systems (e.g., neuroimaging of humans in moral decision making tasks).

Cultivating neuroethical discourse and thinking is valuable not only for understanding the larger implications of our work as it is related to neuroscience, but also for cultivating a practice of challenging our assumptions—a crucial part of any creative, forward thinking scientist’s or scholar’s tool-kit.

Neuroethics is a fairly young field, pioneered by many women scholars. This is reflected in the name, ...
