| Brain-Doping at the Lab BenchDrugs and science have a long history together, and today this is more true than ever as scientists increasingly use brain enhancing drugs to give them an edge in their work. Of 1,427 people working at scientific institutions in over 60 countries, about 20% of the respondents admitted to using brain-enhancing drugs for non-medical purposes.
Should we be outraged? After all, the Tour de France is plagued by accusations of drug use, and fans are justifiably angry when tests return positive. How is mental exercise any different? Why should some scientists have a chemical edge over others?" |
