Description: The goal of the summit is to bring a list of experts together to create a universal list of neuroethics questions that should be addressed across all brain projects. Importantly, that list could be adapted and informed by the cultural values and frameworks of each country including and beyond relying on traditionally western philosophical values. This is a very different, yet important strategy for addressing the societal and ethical implications of emerging neuroscience and neurotechnologies. As neuroscience is now a global endeavor, neuroethics must be equally prepared to address global values.
