A recent article in LA Times informs us “The age of smart drugs is dawning.. and that these drugs may change the way we think and may even change who we are.” The fact that neurotechnology has profound societal implications will come as no surprise to regular readers. What is "news" is the increasing public awareness and discussion of the issues surrounding emerging neurotechnologies.

If you are in the SF/Bay Area and would like to join the discussion, come participate in a new public forum this Thursday in Marin where David Pescovitz, Will Block, Wrye Sententia, and myself will be sharing our thoughts and trying to answer your questions about our emerging neurosociety.
