Kurzbeschreibung: The links between ethics and human nature have been debated for a long time. Today, however, there is a new aspect to it: neuroscientific progress brings us more and more precise knowledge about the biological foundations of cognitive, emotional and decisional processes includung our moral decisions. What are the challenges to our traditional ethical conceptions posed by these developments? Philosophers and neuroscientific researchers will discuss these questions.
