Emerging Uses of Neurotechnology

Neurotechnologies can be used for medical and therapeutic interventions, as diagnostic and preventative tools, to enhance cognitive functions, and advance research on the brain. The IPC commissioned Verónica Arroyo, a privacy lawyer and policy advisor on emerging technology, to develop this independent report.

It provides an introductory overview of neurotechnologies and examines their adoption in healthcare, employment, and law enforcement settings. It also explores legal and ethical issues, legislative and policy developments, and future technological trends.
