ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR NEIL LEVY
I am an Australian Research Council Future Fellow, working at the intersection of the philosophy of action, ethics and cognitive science. My work is focused, especially, on understanding the nature of self-control: how it is lost, and how it can be strengthened.
I am based at the Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health, TC Melbourne, Australia. From December to March I work at the Oxford Centre for Neuroethics, University of Oxford.

I am editor-in-chief of the journal Neuroethics
Neuroethics is a forum for interdisciplinary studies in neuroethics and related issues in the sciences of the mind. The focus is on ethical issues posed by new technologies developed via neuroscience, such as psycho-pharmaceuticals and other ways of intervening in the mind; the practice of neuroscience itself, including problems posed by incidental findings in imaging work on research subjects; regulation of neuroscientific technologies, transfer of property, and ways in which the sciences of the mind illuminate traditional moral and philosophical problems, such as the nature of free will and moral responsibility, self-deception, weakness of the will and the nature of personhood.
