On October 16, 2023, the workshop for the above title was held in Seoul.

In Japan, a national project, Moonshot Goal 1, started to promote the research of neuroscience and the development of its technologies in 2021. Under the umbrella of this project, IoB-S ("Internet-of-Brains"-Society) has been conducting ELSI on the current state and future of braintech such as BMI, BA, and CA. As the project facilitator of IoB-S, Prof. Komamura introduced the trend of braintech, and shared with Korean colleagues and friends the new trend of legal studies on it, Neurolaw, and the implications it brings. A diverse audience including medical scientists, legal scholars, cognitive psychologists, and medical law scholars gathered for a lively discussion.
This event was co-hosted by Department of Medical Humanities and Social Sciences, Yonsei University College of Medicine and IoB-S.
