'''Anders Sandberg''' is a Swedish computer scientist and transhumanist. Born in 1972, he obtained an MSc in computer science in 1997 and a PhD in computer science in 2003. Wikipedia and his page at the FHI say he has a PhD in computational neuroscience, though. He was part of the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and now is a Research Fellow at the Future of Humanity Institute in Oxford. His doctoral thesis was on Bayesian Attractor Neural Network Models of Memory, and his Masters' on Gesture Recognition Using Neural Networks.

== Background ==
Between 1996 and 2000 he chaired the [[Swedish Transhumanist Association]].

He has written the book chapters "Kong Markatta II - en transhumanists erkendelser" and "The Vastening of David Zindell" for ''Homo sapiens 2.0 - Når teknologien kryber ind under huden'' by Gert Balling (2002) and ''Earth Is but a Star : Excursions Through Science Fiction to the Far Future'' by Damien Broderick (2001), respectively. He also contributed the [http://www.nada.kth.se/~asa/bilder/pointer.jpg cover] for the latter.

In 2000 he founded the [[Eudoxa]] think-thank, which has discussed biotechnology, harm reduction, health care, [[nanotechnology]], [[RFID]], and intellectual property, and is a co-founder of the [[Orion's Arm Universe Project]], which has made extensive use of his [http://www.nada.kth.se/~asa/ray.html images] and [[Anders Sandberg's Transhuman Terminology|glossary]] of transhumanist terminology.<ref>[http://www.aleph.se/Trans/Words/ Transhuman Terminology Sub-Page]</ref>

His research outside of neuroscience centers around the ethical and philosophical issues around emerging technologies such as nanotechnology and [[Whole brain emulation]]. Besides many papers on neuroscience, his science writing also includes WBE Roadmap [[Whole brain emulation#Brain Emulation|'Whole Brain Emulation: A Roadmap Technical Report']], written with [[Nick Bostrom]] in 2008. He was a scientific producer for the neuroscience exhibition "Behold the Brain!" ("Se Hjarnan!"), organized by the Knowledge Foundation, the Swedish Research Council and Swedish Traveling Exhibitions.
