  • Abstract
    The aim of the study is to create an ecosystem of affiliated laboratories that develops synergies within and around the Center for Neuroprosthetics that goes beyond the Ecole Polytechnique Federal de Lausanne (EPFL) campus. The ethical issues associated with the Center for Neuroprosthetics´ research and how the scientists should address them together with the ethicists and society at large are taken into account.
