The promises and challenges of neurotechnology to improve human health and cognition
Neurotechnology offers unprecedented opportunities to treat neural disorders, restore brain function and enhance cognitive abilities. However, its vast potential is matched by significant scientific, technological and ethical challenges. This PLOS Biology collection explores the present and possible futures of neurotechnology to improve human health and cognition.
