Summary
“What’s on your mind?” It’s a common question that, with the help of new technologies, may soon yield more personal information than we’d like. Neurotechnology devices can interact directly with the brain to extract information about our thoughts and behaviours and help stimulate certain physical and mental responses. While neurotechnology offers certain health and safety benefits, it also raises significant legal and ethical concerns. In this episode, Jennifer Chandler, a professor at the University of Ottawa’s Centre for Health Law, Policy and Ethics, discusses neurotechnology and emerging cognitive rights such as mental privacy, personal identity, and freedom of thought.
