Despite evidence that advances in the neurosciences are having a significant impact on the lives of individuals across Europe, there has been little formal engagement within the European social sciences with the ethical, social and legal implications of recent developments in the new brain sciences. The European Neuroscience and Society Network (ENSN) aims to establish a multidisciplinary forum for timely and necessary engagement with these issues, through the development of research strategies, conferences and workshops that will bring together leading European neuroscientists and social scientists for sustained discussions and cross-disciplinary exchanges about the present and future impact of advances in the neurosciences on our lives.
