Ethics of neuroscience debate by Hannah Boden https://padlet.com/hannahboden2000/b0bapj5vf2174w4w You need to say whether the evidence is showing neuroscience is ethical or not. Include who and when, what they did, and what they found. en-us 2021-12-12 10:03:17 UTC 2021-12-16 08:39:04 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f9e0.png Ethical https://padlet.com/hannahboden2000/b0bapj5vf2174w4w/wish/1944127925 Neuroscience is ethical because it gives us a wider understanding of brain functions and how we work. It gives us a better understanding of diseases and how they can be treated if not medically. For example turning of life support because the patient isn’t responding to the medication or medical treatment. Neuroscience whelps to find out what other factor could affect the disease and if we can manipulate it/them to help the patient.

With our growing understanding of neurotransmission at a molecular level, it has been possible to design more selective drugs with better side-effect profiles. In addition, adjuvant therapy with other drugs is increasingly used to counteract the remaining side effects."

Example: Cherek et al.(2002) investigated levels of aggression in males with history of criminal behaviour. 1/2 received placebo for 21 days and the other 1/2 received paroxetine(SSRI depressant). Those who received paroxetine had significant decrease in levels of aggression. Therefore, offering pharmacological treatments to criminals can reduce recidivism and make society safer.

- The use of functional MRI on fully awake and unrestrained "volunteer" dogs proved that:

That dogs have brains comparable to human children enabling them to form emotions and feel harm and pain.

' We therefore contend that using dogs in invasive and/or harmful research, and toxicity testing, cannot be ethically justifiable.'

- This doesn't apply to minimal risk trails on healthy volunteers
