DESCRIPTION:<p>Disembodied agency in Neuro Technologies: Ethical and Legal Challenges</p>\n<p>Edited by L. Valera &amp\; Marcelo Barrientos</p>\n<p>Call for Abstracts</p>\n<p>In the framework of our research "Redeeming autonomy: disembodied agency in Neuro Technologies (RADIANT)" project\, we invite you to participate in the shaping of the book "Autonomy in emerging technologies: ethical and legal challenges". The contribution of women will be especially encouraged\, as well as papers addressing Latin-America&rsquo\;s perspective.</p>\n<p>The current development of NTs like brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and neurofeedback (NF) in cognitive neuroscience and clinical interventions is demanding new ethical approaches and regulations\, as the recent case for neurorights has shown. The advancements in this field sparked concerns about the potential misuse of these NTs since they seem to cause a potential loss of personal autonomy.</p>\n<p>The topics to be addressed\, as the title of the research suggests\, will be the crossovers between Philosophy\, Ethics and Law\, to address the challenges of autonomy facing the development of technology in general\, and\, specially\, brain-computer interfaces and neurofeedback\, data protection\, privacy and neurorights.</p>\n<p>Some examples of topics:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Conceptualizations of autonomy in the age of neurotechnologies</li>\n<li>Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and challenges to personal agency</li>\n<li>Neurofeedback technologies and the transformation of self-governance</li>\n<li>Mental privacy\, cognitive liberty\, and the emergence of neurorights</li>\n<li>Data protection and ownership of neural data</li>\n<li>AI-driven neurotechnologies and questions of responsibility and accountability</li>\n<li>Disembodied agency and the philosophical implications of human-machine interaction</li>\n<li>Legal and ethical frameworks for neurotechnologies</li>\n<li>Human enhancement\, neuroaugmentation\, and autonomy</li>\n<li>Neurotechnologies in clinical settings: ethical and regulatory issues</li>\n<li>Consent and vulnerability in the collection and use of neural data</li>\n<li>Neurotechnologies and the future of personal identity</li>\n<li>Digital personhood\, agency\, and emerging technologies</li>\n<li>Governance and public policy for neurotechnological innovation</li>\n<li>Neurotechnologies and fundamental human rights</li>\n<li>The ethics of predictive neurotechnologies and cognitive monitoring</li>\n<li>Neurotechnologies\, surveillance\, and social control</li>\n<li>Responsible innovation in neuroscience and neuroengineering</li>\n<li>Latin American perspectives on neurorights and neurotechnology regulation</li>\n<li>Comparative legal approaches to neurotechnology governance</li>\n<li>Extended self\, digital selfhood\, and neurodata</li>\n<li>Trust\, transparency\, and explainability in neurotechnological systems</li>\n<li>Neurotechnology\, democracy\, and political autonomy</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The list is indicative rather than exhaustive. People interested in these - or similar - topics may send a long abstract (1.000 words including references) to avillamizar@uc.cl by December 1st. We expect that final papers would be around 4\,000-6\,000 words. (Please note that neither submission nor acceptance of an abstract is a guarantee of publication). The deadline for the final paper is May 30th\, 2027. The book will be published between 2027/2028 in a Springer series.</p>
