This volume focuses on topics at the intersection between neuroethics and neurodevelopment, and brings together the perspectives of experts in both clinical assessment and intervention, and researchers in child psychology, neurosciences, medicine, health policy, law, and social work. The goal is to review emerging issues related to the ethical ramifications of how variation in human neurodevelopment is described, and the effects of these descriptions on those with lived experience, clinical and intervention services, and health and social policy. Related topics are also explored including the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic, the ethics of invasive neurotechnology interventions, biomarkers, machine learning, precision medicine.
- Provides novel and original research on the emerging field of the legal regulation of neuroscience
- Takes an interdisciplinary approach, with chapters by global scholars from several disciplines, including law, philosophy and medicine
- Develops a global approach that will be useful in jurisdictions around the globe
Academics at the intersection of medicine, psychology, social work, ethics, law and policy; practitioners in pediatrics, developmental pediatrics, child psychiatry, child psychology, and social work; undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate students in neuroscience, psychology, medicine, social work and health policy
