神经科学研究将大脑作为获取人类健康、行为和社会互动知识的一种新手段。近年来，广泛的学科、专业领域以及艺术家和非专业团体（如患者群体）都参与了神经科学的发现和技术发展（例如，Frazzetto和Anker, 2009; Ortega, 2009）。2012年，威康收藏馆举办了一场名为“大脑：精神即物质”的展览，展示了这些发展及其历史渊源。该展览旨在“……探索人类以医疗干预、科学探究、文化意义和技术变革的名义对大脑做了什么”。这次展览很好地说明了神经科学是如何超越实验室的，这一举动导致了所谓的“大脑的政治经济学”，也就是说：大脑被展示、拍照、扫描、分析和处理，从而被科学工业转化为学术论文、媒体的发现、教育和信息、更健康的公民、更顺从的工人和消费者——所有这些都是为了增强国家的实力、繁荣、安全等等。众多的空间、审美偏好、协议、技术和工具支持并实现了这一系列的实践。可以说，有一种关于大脑的政治经济学，通过这种经济学，大脑被赋予了一定程度的希望和期望，这种希望和期望通常超过了科学理解或利用它的能力。（Kwint and Wingate, 2012，第20页，我们的重点）
Neuroscientific research studies the brain as a novel means for accessing knowledge about human health, behaviour and social interaction. In recent years a broad range of academic disciplines, professional fields but also artists and lay groups (such as patient groups) have engaged with findings and technologies developed in neuroscience (for example, Frazzetto and Anker, 2009; Ortega, 2009). In 2012 these developments and its historical antecedents were showcased in a Wellcome Collection1 exhibition entitled Brains: the mind as matter. The exhibition sought to “… explore what humans have done to brains in the name of medical intervention, scientific enquiry, cultural meaning and technological change”. This exhibition is a good illustration of how neuroscience has moved beyond the laboratory, a move which has led to what has been described as a ‘political economy of brains’, that is: brains are displayed, pictured, scanned, analysed and treated thus transforming them by scientific industry into academic papers, media spectacles of discovery, education and information, healthier citizens, more compliant workers and consumers–all to enhance national prowess, prosperity, security and so on. A multitude of spaces, aesthetic predilections, protocols, technologies and tools supports and enables this range of practices. There is, so to speak, a political economy of brains, by which the brain becomes invested with a level of hope and expectation that has usually exceeded the ability of science to make sense or use of it.(Kwint and Wingate, 2012, p. 20, our emphasis)
