Achieving cognitive enhancement
On May 24th the Eudoxa think tank's third seminar in Second Life was held at Uvvy Island.

Cognition seems to become one of the most fertile areas for human enhancement. Anders Sandberg explained both the recent advances in the field, his and Nick Bostrom's paper, and also sketched on some possible policy applications.
We are in much need of having a public discource on human enhancement, and the discussion at the seminar with the audience provided interesting ideas that will surely provide new materials.
