  • A field of marketing which studies the human brain's response to marketing stimuli. Using medical technology such as functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), researchers measure changes in activity in parts of the brain and attempt to discover why consumers make the decisions they do, and what part of the brain is telling them to do it. "Neuromarketing" is being called the most important breakthrough in marketing research.

  • In 2005, The Committee on Science and Law considered possible legal implications of neural engineering. An emphasis was put on privacy implications of neural imaging, in particular on the use of neural imaging in non-medical research. The committee recognized neuromarketing, defined as the field of marketing research that studies consumers’ sensorimotor, cognitive, and affective response to marketing stimuli and brain fingerprinting, defined as a technique that purports to determine the truth by detecting information stored in the brain, as emerging non-medical areas using neural imaging data.
