European Neuroscience and Society Network

Welcome to the European Neuroscience and Society Network, the leading European network for interdisciplinary discussions of the social implications of the neurosciences. Funded by the European Science Foundation and convened by researchers at the BIOS Centre, LSE, the ENSN has been established to serve as a multidisciplinary forum for timely engagement with the social, political and economic implications of developments in the neurosciences, a field that has experienced unprecedented advances in the last twenty years.

A series of workshops and conferences, to be held in both Europe and North America, will bring together life scientists and social scientists, leading to the publication of annual volumes in international journals. The ENSN is directed by a Steering Committee consisting of representatives from Austria, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Switzerland and the UK. Chair of the ENSN is Professor Nikolas Rose, Director of the BIOS Centre for the study of Bioscience, Biomedicine, Biotechnology and Society.
