Welcome to the Human Cognitive Enhancement Knowledge Base which is a part of the HCENAT project.
One of the deliverables of this project is the Human Cognitive Enhancement Database, or HCE in short. This wikipedia-like knowledge base will serves as an encyclopaedia of technologies that enhance or otherwise modify human cognition. It is not a mere database, though. We aim to provide not only a comprehensive list of available technologies but also a commentary on related topics such as health issues, controversies, socio-economic implications and more. We also take care to approach each subject with care, research it properly and, if they are available, reference relevant sources, research, and literature. The overall structure of this knowledge base, can be viewed here.
So far, this knowledge base is for internal purposes and testing only. You can expect frequent changes and bugs, so be aware! The official release of the knowledge base is planned for the end of the year 2015.

About HCENAT
Naturalness in Human Cognitive Enhancement project aims at building up a new international research partnership in the field of Human Cognitive Enhancement (HCE) and to provide clear and accessible HCE-related analysis, guidelines and directions for policymakers, stakeholders, HCE engineers and consumers. Its goal is to create a philosophically grounded, open and transparent framework for description, assessment and forecast of acceptability of HCE systems in public space and by society, as well as for HCE governance issues. The project will be finished in April 2017.
Within this project, we tightly cooperate with Charles University in Prague, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Prague Psychiatric Center, The Department of Cybernetics at University of West Bohemia and two Norwegian partners: University College of Gjøvik, Faculty of Health, Care and Nursing and Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences, Work Research Institute.
