The Program in Ethics and Brain Sciences (PEBS) is a collaborative neuroethics effort of the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics and the Johns Hopkins Brain Sciences Institute. The primary goal of PEBS is to ensure that research in brain science proceeds with an informed understanding of ethical issues, and that philosophical and empirical analyses of the advances in brain research proceeds with an informed understanding of the science.
