“The Emerging Neurobioeconomy: Implications for National Security”

In this publication, James Giordano, Joseph DeFranco and Maureen Rhemann examine the growth of the neuroscience and neurotechnology market in recent years. They discuss how the neurobioeconomy poses distinct ethical and security issues for the broader bioeconomy, provide examples of such issues that arise from specific nation-state activity and technological commercialization, and propose a risk assessment and mitigation approach that can be engaged by the economic, scientific, and security communities.
