Interests
My PhD is in neuroscience and I was the founding Editor of The Lancet Neurology; I am fascinated by the physiology and pathophysiology of the human brain, but also in how neuroscience intersects with society. For example, in the past I have written about the ethics of cognitive enhancement, as well as new fields such as neuroeconomics and neuropolitics.
