1.      “Neurolaw Revolution” Lecture : On September 13, 2017, Francis Shen lectured at Harvard Law School on how neuroscientific analysis of law is revolutionizing legal doctrine and practice. Dr. Shen is the Exec. Dir. of Education and Outreach for the MacArthur Foundation Research Network on Law and Neuroscience. The lecture was part of the Project on Law and Applied Neuroscience, a collaboration between the Center for Law, Brain & Behavior at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School. Available online .

 

2.      17th Summer and International Refresher Course in Bioethics: Human Enhancement: Bioethical Challenges of Emerging Technologies will be held from July 9–13 in Rome, Italy.
