Nowadays, we are witnessing the increasing scholarly attention to neuroscience achievements in thecontext of the law. However, the complexity of the brain cognitive functions and the performance limitsof current neuroscience techniques for discovering the secrets of the brain on one hand, and the needfor neuro-litigation development with ethical-legal constraints, on the other hand, caused some limitsin ‘law and neuroscience’. What credit can be given to neuroscience today in full development? Canfunctional brain imaging have a place in criminal procedures to assess liability and dangerousness, forexample? We will consider the limits of the techniques as well as the possible progress of the legislationin this field. These questions justify the creation of a new interdisciplinary concept: Neurolaw or Lawapplied to neuroscience.
