  7. The policy problem - Regulation Medical device :: Drug Cognitive enhancement device :: Vitamin

  8. Policy Recommendation • Regulate tDCS like medically approved forms of brain stimulation (rTMS or CES) until we have longitudinal data • “CEDs are similar to devices already covered by legislation for medical devices. They intervene to modify physiological processes, and present varying degrees of physiological risks and potential side-effects...no relevant distinction exists between devices used for treatment and enhancement in terms of mechanism” (Maslen et al., 2013)
