"It's good to put in practice good frameworks for guiding good innovation. What we don't want to do is stop it or prevent it from occurring because now smart, well-intentioned researchers and engineers and neuroscientists are getting nervous about what might happen if they overstep." - Dr. Judy Illes on guidelines on the use of neurotechnology at CBC's latest article on neural privacy https://lnkd.in/gQyuQtY8

Dr. Judy Illes had the pleasure to serve on the Scientific Advisory Board of EuroBioImaging this past week at the EMBL in Heidelberg, Germany. There were opportunities for robust exchanges among colleagues in many different forms of reality. 🧠
