The publication, in online format, collects the contributions of the speakers who participated in the International Workshop on the risks and challenges of neurotechnologies for human rights, organized on 23 e 24 November 2021. It aims to promote a public debate on one of the great challenges currently posed by the development of emerging technologies.
