Neuroethics [login at prompt]
Available: 07/15/24, Expires: 05/31/27

Neuroethics is a highly interdisciplinary, burgeoning field that breaks down traditional barriers between neuroscience, neuroengineering, law, history, philosophy, sociology, nursing, social work, psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery, bioethics, biomedical innovation, genetics, and human rights among others, to rigorously interrogate the many implications of advances in brain science. Scholarly projects in Neuroethics are available, and can be tailored to the scope of time, e.g. summer rotation project, term-time part time project, HMS scholarly project, or potentially HMS 5th year projects. HMS bioethics masters student capstone projects also available. projects are generally oriented around producing a written output for publication, but could also be education, or public communication. Projects that engage with neuroethics of biomarkers in psychiatry and neurology are especially encouraged.

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
