Thomas Zoëga Ramsøy (b. 1973 in Oslo, Norway) is a PhD in cognitive neuroscience / neuroimaging, originally trained in clinical and theoretical neuropsychology. His current work is at the Copenhagen Business School and in strong collaboration with the Danish Research Centre for Magnetic Resonance at the Copenhagen University Hospital Hvidovre, Denmark
Ramsøy is an expert in neuromarketing and neuroeconomics. Ramsøy heads the Decision Neuroscience Research Group (see also here), and his work focuses on a range of different topics, including:
- neuroeconomics
- neuromarketing
- conscious and unconscious bases of cognition, emotion and action
- disorders of decision making
- neuroaesthetics
- visual cognition & memory
- creativity & innovation
The resulting interest in neuroethics stems from a speculation about the findings from these areas. Concerns about practical issues and especially ethical, folk-psychological and philosophical consequences of brain imaging have given rise to this interest. Together with Martin Skov he writes on a book (in Danish) on neuroethics.
TZR is also the managing editor of the Science & Consciousness Review, an online forum/journal reviewing the scientific study of the mind.
