Neuroethics guidance documents: principles, analysis, and implementation strategies.

Innovations in neurotechnologies have ignited conversations about ethics around the world, with implications for researchers, policymakers, and the private sector. The human rights impacts of neurotechnologies have drawn the attention of United Nations bodies; nearly 40 states are tasked with implementing the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development's principles for responsible innovation in neurotechnology; and the United States is considering placing export controls on brain-computer interfaces. Against this backdrop, we offer the first review and analysis of neuroethics guidance documents recently issued by prominent government, private, and academic groups, focusing on commonalities and divergences in articulated goals; envisioned roles and responsibilities of different stakeholder groups; and the suggested role of the public.

Inherited regulation for advanced ARTs: comparing jurisdictions' applications of existing governance regimes to emerging reproductive technologies.

Over the past 5 years, advanced assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), such as mitochondrial replacement therapies (MRTs) and heritable human genome editing (HHGE), have raised global policy concerns and fears of 'unregulated' proliferation. Yet, few innovations are ever truly unregulated and more often fall within the scope of one or more pre-existing regulatory regimes, a process referred to as 'inherited regulation'. While the United Kingdom has enacted new legislation to specifically authorize and closely regulate MRTs, many jurisdictions will likely default to current oversight systems to manage advanced ARTs.

Using Precision Public Health to Manage Climate Change: Opportunities, Challenges, and Health Justice.

Amid public health concerns over climate change, "precision public health" (PPH) is emerging in next generation approaches to practice. These novel methods promise to augment public health operations by using ever larger and more robust health datasets combined with new tools for collecting and analyzing data. Precision strategies to protecting the public health could more effectively or efficiently address the systemic threats of climate change, but may also propagate or exacerbate health disparities for the populations most vulnerable in a changing climate.

Cytoprotective pyridinol antioxidants as potential therapeutic agents for neurodegenerative and mitochondrial diseases.

As part of our ongoing efforts to identify compounds having potential utility in treating neurodegenerative and mitochondrial disorders, a series of pyridinol analogues have been prepared. The synthetic route employed for the preparation of the new analogues is different, and considerably more efficient, than that used in previously reported studies. The new route yields a pair of pyridinol regioisomers that can be readily separated and evaluated.
