Abstract: AbstractDefinition of the problemIn this article, a review of neuroethics is provided. Building on an earlier paper by Müller et al. (2018), we identify continuities and shed light on more recent important developments. Arguments In particular, we show that neuroethics is partly confronted with new substantive challenges. In addition, the question of how to deal with diversity plays a growing role: neuroethics is increasingly reflecting on the extent to which certain social groups are under- or overrepresented in research and ethical discourse, as well as the resulting blind spots. In this context, adopting a global perspective that takes cultural plurality into account is becoming increasingly important for neuroethics. Finally, we point out existing and emerging forms of institutionalization and networking with which the scientific community is responding to these challenges. Conclusion We argue that neuroethics should focus more on inclusive and participatory research concepts.
