Over deze opleiding
Are you interested in the conceptual basis and the social, legal and ethical implications of neuroscience research?
In this programme you will study the conceptual foundations and the broader implications of neuroscientific research from different philosophical perspectives. Neuroscience belongs to the sciences that in the future will have a large impact on virtually all aspects of our functioning as humans. Neuroscience has already changed the view we have on ourselves. This program offers an answer to a need for responsible scientists, scientists who are sensitive to the conceptual issues in their own specific subdomain and who are, on the other hand, able to reflect and communicate about the broader implications of their field, clinical as well as societal. We aim at philosophy in neuroscience instead of philosophy about neuroscience.
