Workshop: Responsible Innovation at the Interface between Neuroscience, Brain Research, and Technological Convergence

该奖项为为期两天的国际研讨会提供支持；具体地说，它为研讨会参与者提供旅行支持。研讨会将由亚利桑那州立大学、欧盟委员会、医学研究所和经济合作与发展组织联合主办。它的重点是神经科学、脑研究和技术融合之间的开放和负责任的创新。它将把致力于国家大脑倡议的研究人员与致力于生物伦理、法律、公共政策和科学技术研究的社会科学家聚集在一起。其目标是提高所有利益相关者之间关于脑科学伦理、法律和社会价值的影响以及脑研究领域新兴和融合技术的开发和使用的清晰度和更好的相互理解。研讨会的成果和建议将被用来通知政策制定者和其他团体，以加强公共部门研究资金、法规框架的开发和实施、公共和私营部门研究活动和商业化的负责任创新的价值观。研讨会将提供一个机会，促进围绕负责任的脑研究和相关技术开发的跨学科对话和合作。它将为科学界成员、政策制定者、资助者、监管机构和民间社会提供一个平台，以解决一系列问题。他们将考虑通过更开放和合作的方法来提高脑科学和神经技术创新的创造力和社会责任感的选择。他们将分析将开放和负责任的创新的价值整合到主要的大脑研究倡议和资助计划中的机制，并考虑标准在工业化过程和产品开发中的作用。此外，他们将努力寻找脑科学和神经技术创新的机会，向生物医学研究、工程、政策、监管、资金和商业化方面更广泛的利益攸关方通报社会对科学和技术的需求和愿望。

General Audience Summary This award provides support for a two-day international workshop; specifically, it provides travel support for workshop participants. The workshop will be jointly hosted by Arizona State University, the European Commission, the Institute of Medicine, and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. Its focus is open and responsible innovation at the interface between neuroscience, brain research and technological convergence. It will draw together researchers working on national brain initiatives with social scientists working on bioethics, law, public policy and science and technology studies. Its goal is to increase clarity and better mutual understanding amongst all stakeholders about the implications of ethical, legal, and social values in brain science and the development and use of emerging and converging technologies within the field of brain research. Outputs and recommendations stemming from the workshop shall be used to inform policy makers and other groups to strengthen values of responsible innovation in public sector research funding, development and implementation of regulatory frameworks, public and private sector research activities and commercialization.Technical Summary The workshop will provide an opportunity to stimulate interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration around responsible brain research and related technology development. It will offer a platform for members of the scientific community, policy makers, funders, regulatory agencies and civil society to address a number of issues. They will consider options to increase the creativity and social responsibility of brain science and neuro-technological innovation through more open and collaborative approaches. They will analyze mechanisms to integrate values of open and responsible innovation into major brain research initiatives and funding programs, and consider the role of standards for the development of industrialized process and products. In addition, they will work to identify opportunities for brain science and neuro-technology innovation to inform the broader set of stakeholders in biomedical research, engineering, policy, regulation, funding and commercialization about the societal needs and desires in science and technology.
