First Amendment claims might even be used, as interference with free responses to questions could be proposed as a violation of the right to free mentation and speech.

==Week 6==
''5/4'' [mailto:gringovich@ucla.edu Presented by Leo and Derek]

Hello all,

Here are the papers for this week. Attached are:

primary papers:

*[[Media:Ethics_Neuroimaging.pdf | Neuroethics of Neuromarketing]]
*[[Media:Hope_and_Hype.pdf | Neuromarketing: hope and hype]]
*[[Media:What_is_Neuromarketing.pdf | What is neuromarketing?]]
*[[Media:Neuromarketing_Patent.pdf | United states patent #6,099,319: neuroimaging as a marketing tool]]

The first discusses major ethical issues raised by the advent of neuromarketing.
The second asks "why use imaging for marketing at all?"
The third, "what is NM" is a short meta-analysis of neuromarketing as a field of study unto itself.
The patent document is a useful example of how a neuromarketing project is carried out. No need to read the whole thing.

Questions to think about:
*1)Is this even feasible?
*2)How exactly would it work?
*3)How might it change marketing?
*4)How does it affect privacy?
*5)What are the implications/possible future applications of this sort of research?

Regards,
Leo

==Week 8==
''5/11'' Presented by [mailto:KATYCROSS@UCLA.EDU Katy Cross] and [mailto:SMADSEN1@GMAIL.COM Sarah Madsen]

'''Criminality, Responsibility and the Brain'''

In 2009 fMRI evidence was used (for the first time in court?) by the defense to combat the death penalty in the sentencing of Brian Dugan for murder. These papers discuss the role of brain imaging in law, specifically regarding criminal responsibility.

*[http://news.sciencemag.org/scienceinsider/2009/11/fmri-evidence-u.html Short news blurb on fMRI used in the Brian Dugan case]
*[[Media:Eastman_2006.pdf | Neuroscience and legal determination of criminal responsibility, Eastman & Cambell, 2006]]
*[[Media:Mobbs_2007.pdf | Law, Responsibility and the Brain, Mobbs et al., 2007 ]]
*[http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/guest_contributors/article2726643.ece Argument against neurolaw]

This last one is a paper from a law journal in case anyone wants the law perspective. Its a little longer and won't be the primary focus, just FYI.
*[[Media:Feigenson_admissability.pdf | Brain imaging and courtroom evidence: on the admissibility and persuasiveness of fMRI ]]

==Week 9==
''5/18'' [mailto:skinucla@ucla.edu Presented by Jia Liu :) ]

In order to apply neuroimaging techniques and results to more broad areas, eg. neuromarketing and lie detection, and to better understand the brain, we first need to make sure that our research is reliable. This week we'll talk about how we believe our research.

*[http://neuroskeptic.blogspot.com/2009/09/fmri-gets-slap-in-face-with-dead-fish.html fMRI Gets Slap in the Face with a Dead Fish]

*[http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSN1930510020070720 Man with Almost No Brain Has Led Normal Life]

*[[media:The_Seductive_Allure.pdf‎ | The Seductive Allure ]]

questions to think about:

How much do we rely on statistics tools and how much do we really understand them?

and if have time, we'll discuss the relationship between neuroimaging and mass media, eg. how people outside academia see us

*[[media:FMRI in the public eye.pdf | fMRI in the public eye ]]

optional reading

*[[media:How_reliable_are_the_results_from_functional_magnetic_resonace_imaging.pdf | How reliable are the results from fMRI? ]]

==Week 10==
''5/25'' [mailto:weili15@ucla.edu Presented by Wei Li]

This week we will focus on TMS and safety of neuroimaging.
*[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJtNPqCj-iA&feature=related Youtube clip about TMS in action]
*[http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v406/n6792/full/406147a0.html What can TMS do?]
*[http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2006/feb/05/comment.themilitary TMS: Mind control?]
*[http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/node/51126 News article on TMS changing morals] and [[media:TMS_Morals.pdf‎| The paper]]
*[[media:TMS_deception.pdf‎| TMS and Deception]]

==Week 10==
''6/1'' [mailto:jkuo@mednet.ucla.edu Presented by John Kuo]

To ethically perform neuroimaging studies, we must fully understand the risks involved:

* [[media:Hartwig (2009) Int J Environ Res Public Health.pdf | Safety of MRI.]] (could not find a specific review for fMRI safety)

* [[media:Rossi (2009) Clin Neurophysiol.pdf | Safety of TMS.]]

The reviews are lengthy, so just focus on the safety and side effect issues.

==Week 3 - No Meeting==
''4/13''

There will be no meeting this week. We will continue on 4/20.

==Week 4==
''4/20'' No Lie MRI (this may take more than one session)

A number of groups have reported reliable detection of true and false using fMRI, usually with the aid of machine learning/pattern analysis schemes.

We will discuss a variety of issues here
* Does this actually work?
* Does a Polygraph work?
* Who should profit?
* What does this do to our rights to privacy?

==Week 6==
''5/4'' [mailto:gringovich@ucla.edu Presented by Leo and Derek]

Hello all,

Here are the papers for this week. Attached are:

primary papers:

*[[Image:Ethics_Neuroimaging.pdf Neuroethics of Neuromarketing]]
*[[image:Hope_and_Hype.pdf Neuromarketing: hope and hype]]
*[[image:What_is_Neuromarketing.pdf‎ What is neuromarketing?]]
*[[image:Neuromarketing_Patent.pdf United states patent #6,099,319: neuroimaging as a marketing tool]]

The first discusses major ethical issues raised by the advent of neuromarketing.
The second asks "why use imaging for marketing at all?"
The third, "what is NM" is a short meta-analysis of neuromarketing as a field of study unto itself.
The patent document is a useful example of how a neuromarketing project is carried out. No need to read the whole thing.

Questions to think about:
*1)Is this even feasible?
*2)How exactly would it work?
*3)How might it change marketing?
*4)How does it affect privacy?
*5)What are the implications/possible future applications of this sort of research?

Regards,
Leo
