Penn Neuroethics Talk: Cognitive Enhancing Drugs: Neuroscience and Society

Dear Friends of the Penn Center for Neuroscience & Society:

We pleased to extend to you an invitation to attend the first public talk in this year's Neuroscience & Society Lecture Series at the University of Pennsylvania. World-renowned researcher and Penn Distinguished International Scholar, Dr. Barbara Sahakian, will be speaking on "Cognitive Enhancing Drugs: Neuroscience and Society."

Dr. Sahakian has done more work than anyone else on the effects of cognitive enhancing drugs on normal healthy individuals, young and old. She has recently become very interested in neuroethics and has written a fair amount on the subject. You can read more about her work at: http://www.neuroscience.cam.ac.uk/directory/profile.php?barbara

Due to an overwhelming response, the talk will now take place on the Penn campus at College Hall 200, (between 34th & 36th Streets and Walnut & Spruce Streets), on Thursday, Oct 8th, from 4-5:30. There is limited space, so if you have not done so already, please RSVP by sending an email to: info@neuroethics.upenn.edu
