Full Description
Public Engagement and Ethical Communication in Brain Research, Innovation, and Health, Volume Nine in the Developments in Neuroethics and Bioethics series, provides a comprehensive overview of various understandings of neuroscience and (neuro)ethics communication across research, policy, and society. Specific chapters in this new release include Neurohype Across Borders: How Media Narratives Shape Public Perception of Neurotechnology in English- and Spanish-Speaking Countries, Physicians' Resistance Towards Pandemic Public Health Policies in Romania: Navigating Misinformation, Ethical Challenges, and Responsibility in Science Communication, Foresight Scenarios as Communicative Instruments in Anticipatory Neuroethics, and much more.
Additional chapters include Draw closer to me: Participatory visual storytelling to include socio-cultural perspectives in neuroethics and policymaking, Against the Narrative of the Insufficiency of Human Rights on the Neurorights Discourse, Reflective accounts from collaborative neuro-oncology research: perspectives from patient partners and researchers, Responsible conceptualization in research and innovation, Anticipating Polarization: Public Discourse and the Unpreparedness of Neuroethics Communication, Shared Responsibility for Communicating Neuroscience Research: A Case Study for Spinal Cord Injury, and much more.
Featured topics include creative and participatory approaches to (neuro)ethics communication, the impact of narratives on public perception and science policy, the importance of responsible communication in neuroscience, and the dynamics between patient partners and researchers. The volume also addresses cross-cultural perspectives and focuses on comparative case studies of current emerging neuroscience research and neurotechnologies across countries.
