How novel must the technique be, before specific consent is required from the patient? When should regulatory authorities review the technique? • We discuss these questions and more with two neurosurgeons experienced in innovation, bioethics, the law, and international regulation. • ----- Speakers ----- • Joseph Madsen, MD • Director, Epilepsy Surgery • Children's Hospital Boston • Marieke Broekman MD, PhD, JD • Neurosurgery, University Medical Center Utrecht • ----- About the Series ----- • The Neuroethics Seminar Series is designed to explore a diverse range of subjects at the intersection of neuroscience and ethics.
