In principle such advances can be applied to any field of endeavor that depends on human behavior, for example economics, education, law and warfare. In this talk I will raise, and attempt to answer, the following questions: How are these advances being used in practice? Which ethical problems have so far occupied the field of neuroethics, and which are relevant to current and plausible near-term uses of neuroscience? Does contemporary neuroscience raise any new ethical issues, not already familiar to scholars of bioethics or STS?</p><br style="color: rgb(76, 83, 89); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; text-align: left; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "><br style="color: rgb(76, 83, 89); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; text-align: left; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "><p align="center" style="margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px; color: rgb(76, 83, 89); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "><b>ARTHUR MILLER</b> (B.S., '34; Ph.D., '38)</p><p align="center" style="margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px; color: rgb(76, 83, 89); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); ">The Arthur Miller Lecture in Science and Ethics, held annually at MIT, honors the memory of Arthur Miller, an MIT alumnus (S.B. 1945) noted for his work in electronic measurement and instrumentation. During World War II, he worked at the Radiation Lab, for several years. His medical contributions included methods to reduce shock hazards in hospital monitoring systems and designing the first commercial cardiographs that featured adequate patient circuit isolation from line and ground. <br><br>Past lecturers of note have been:<br><br>2011 Marc Rotenberg (EPIC)<br>2010 Paul Farmer (Partners in Health Co-Founder)<br>2009 Troy Duster (NYU)<br>, 2007 Charles Perrow (Yale) <br>2006 Jim Kim (Harvard Medical School)<br>2005 Susan Hockfiled (MIT)<br>2004 Margaret Mellon (Union of Concerned Scientists)</p></div><div><br></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
