Brief description Neuroenhancement is the use of pharmaceuticals and other substances by ñhealthyî people to improve their normal cognitive abilities - for example by improving their attention span, memory or mood. By conducting in-depth interviews with community members this project will explore understandings of, and attitudes towards, neuroenhancement among Australian adults. This information is essential to inform policies, and medical practice, in the use of pharmaceuticals for neuroenhancement purposes.
