Objective
This project examines the ethical implications of emerging neurotechnologies, with a focus on defining the boundary between their use for medical treatment and their use for cognitive enhancement. The research aims to clarify how ethical frameworks can guide responsible development and application of these technologies. The researcher will engage in philosophy colloquia within the Neuroethics Research Group and contribute to empirical studies investigating prospective medical uses of neurotechnology, situating ethical analysis alongside real‑world clinical and research contexts.
