Abstract

About this Special Issue

"Neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence, and Innovation in Education"

The April 2025 special issue of BRAIN. Broad Research in Artificial Intelligence and Neuroscience explores the dynamic intersection of neuroscience, artificial intelligence (AI), and educational innovation. Under the theme "Neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence, and Innovation in Education", this issue brings together 34 peer-reviewed contributions from a broad range of disciplines, regions, and perspectives.

The articles in this volume reflect the expanding role of AI and cognitive science in reshaping how we understand learning, teaching, and human development. From the neurophysiological challenges in inclusive preschool education, to AI-based pedagogical tools, generative AI, digital biomarkers, and agentic AI in STEM, the authors illustrate how emerging technologies are not only tools, but catalysts for reimagining education.

Topics such as:

• neuropedagogical strategies for teacher training,

• AI in language learning and critical thinking development,

• the impact of digitalization on educational quality, and

• the ethical and psychological implications of AI in education,
  demonstrate the multifaceted influence of neuroscience and AI on learners, educators, and institutions.
  
  

The issue also features work on cognitive stimulation in psychiatric contexts, AI in medical education, digital folk choreography, and even AI’s role in rethinking criminal responsibility—showcasing the rich interdisciplinary fabric of today’s research landscape.

Through this collection, we highlight not only technological advancement, but also a commitment to inclusive, ethical, and learner-centered education in an era of rapid change. Our aim is to provide a resource for researchers, educators, and policymakers who are navigating the profound transformations in how we teach and learn.

We extend our gratitude to all authors and reviewers whose work made this issue possible. We are confident that the ideas and findings shared in this volume will inspire new research directions and practical applications across disciplines.
