On November 23 and 24, 2021, Professor Francesca Gasparini and I have partecipated as invited speakers to the International Workshop on the risks and challenges of neurotechnologies for human rights with a work entitled BCIs and wearables: reliability, ethics and security from a computer scientist to a multi-disciplinary point of view.

After two days of intensive discussions we have come to the conclusion that ethical issues arising from the use of neurotechnologies require the attention of a multidisciplinary community and thus we thank the organizers, Doctor Marta Maria Sosa Navarro, Doctor Salvador Dura-Bernal and Doctor Carla Maria Gulotta, for having provided such a great occasion to exchange ideas with researchers from very differnt domains.

Looking forward to new opportunities to discuss these topics!
