Criminal Law Protection of Neurorights and Mental Integrity of a Human

The article examines the problem of ensuring the legal protection of new personal rights arising from the development of neurotechnology and the possibility of intervention in the mental state of a person. It is argued that the appeal to the latest achievements of digital and biological sciences in healthcare contributes to the development of personalized medicine, however, the exclusivity of neurotechnology can be used for the purposes of transhumanism and, consequently, human modernization. The current state of neuro-rights, their place in the human rights system and the need for their protection by criminal law norms are investigated. The purpose of the article is to formulate recommendations for improving the criminal law norms governing the illegal use of neurotechnologies. The main methods are system-structural and comparative legal analysis, as well as the method of interpretation of legal norms and interdisciplinary research. The methodological basis of the work is an integrated approach that combines scientific knowledge about the structure and functioning of the brain with the provisions of criminal law. The author concludes that it is necessary to expand criminal liability for illegal experiments on humans, taking into account physical, mental, genetic and social health as a single object of legal protection.
