The development of implanted neural devices to manage neurological and psychiatric disorders or to restore loss of physiological function is a rapidly advancing area of neuroscience research. We consider whether investigators of brain implant studies have an obligation to facilitate device explantation for participants who request it at study conclusion.
植入式神经设备的发展,用于管理神经和精神疾病或恢复生理功能的丧失,是神经科学研究中一个迅速发展的领域。我们考虑了脑植入研究的研究者是否有义务为在研究结束时要求进行设备取出的参与者提供便利。
