A digital post-it note

If the project of neurophilosophy is to bridge neuroscience with philosophy of mind, then I would like to propose that the project of neuroethics be to bridge behavioral psychology with moral philosophy.

I need to do some research to see the extent to which any work has been done on any translational reductive projects that show how what we conceptualize as "moral rules" are just discrete habitual behaviors.
