SUMMARY:Annual Distinguished Neuroethics Lecture: Hacking the Mind
DESCRIPTION:As it advances\, our relationship with brain technology will change. In this lecture\, Dr. Nir Lipsman will discuss how our knowledge of brain circuitry\, and how it can go wrong\, has informed our understanding of human behaviour. We will then discuss the implications of more sophisticated\, precise and less intrusive brain technology\, on that relationship\, and what it could all mean for the next generation of brain therapy and beyond… \nNir Lipsman MD\, PhD\, FRCSC \nDr. Nir Lipsman is a neurosurgeon and scientist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and an Assistant Professor of Surgery at the University of Toronto. He completed his undergraduate degree at the University of Toronto followed by a medical degree at Queen’s University\, and a neurosurgical residency at the University of Toronto. During his residency\, Dr. Lipsman completed his PhD investigating novel neuromodulation strategies in patients with treatment-resistant psychiatric and neurologic conditions. He is currently the Director of Sunnybrook’s Harquail Center for Neuromodulation\, and the Clinical Director of Sunnybrook’s Focused Ultrasound Centre of Excellence. \nDr. Lipsman has helped develop several clinical trials of MR-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) in novel indications\, including among the world’s first experience of FUS in essential tremor\, obsessive-compulsive disorder\, major depression and chronic pain\, as well as the first randomized control trial of FUS in tremor. He has led the world’s first application of FUS-mediated blood brain barrier (BBB) opening in Alzheimer’s Disease\, and helped develop the first applications in primary and secondary brain tumors and ALS. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed papers and book chapters\, including in The Lancet\, Lancet Neurology\, Lancet Psychiatry\, New England Journal of Medicine\, and Neuron. \nDr. Lipsman also has a strong interest in the broader clinical and ethical implications of neuromodulation\, and has been closely involved in the development of international guidelines for the use of surgery in psychiatric disease. In collaboration with Drs. Judy Illes and Pat McDonald at UBC\, he helped found the Pan Canadian Neurotechnology Ethics Consortium (PCNEC)\, bringing together experts in neuromodulation and ethics\, to identify and tackle the most pressing ethical questions in the field. \nThis event will be held via Zoom. A link to the talk will be distributed by email to the attendees prior to the event.
