It shall be of utmost importance for ELSI approaches associated with these advances to actively inform research, development, and technological diffusion (see, for example, Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues 2014). Innovation in this space is likely to also give rise to philosophical and bioethical questions that go to the very heart of what it means to be human and what we mean – or seek to define – as a ‘healthy brain’. Questions over access and equity – who gets access, and at what cost – are likely to be central to the debate.


At the same time there is broad agreement across national jurisdictions that innovation in brain science and neurotechnology raise a host of ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) and governance questions (Garden et al. 2016). Brain science and its applications carry unique power to engage neuralink chip  with our identity, self- understanding, and the natural boundaries of cognition. The perception of a gap in thinking about the neurotechnology and society interface has given rise to new scholarly fields, including ‘neurolaw’ and ‘neuroethics’. The widely perceived need for better thinking on neurotechnology and society – and for better approaches to manage their interactions at an early stage (see, for example, Hauser 2014; Sullivan and Illes 2017) – is in no small part due to the long and complicated history of brain science and therapeutic interventions (see, for example, Gross 1999; Finger 2001) such as lobotomy, electroconvulsive therapy, and psychopharmaceuticals.4
