The integration of intelligent neurotechnology into the human brain creates pressing ethical, legal and social challenges. Devices that detect, interpret and translate neural signals and provide direct stimulation to the brain afford a novel form of human-machine interaction. At the final conference of the international Hybrid Minds project, we bring together leading experts on ethical and legal aspects of (intelligent) neurotechnology from academia, industry, regulatory bodies and international organizations.
