The Moral Brain (TMB) is the initiative that Jan Verplaetse started in 2004 together with Johan Braeckman (Faculty of Arts and Philosophy, Ghent University). TMB is an interdisciplinary research community that unites Belgian and Dutch researchers who study – amongst other topics - moral and immoral behavior, moral emotions and the development of ethical judgments from a neuroscientific and evolutionary perspective. Besides doing research inspired by contemporary insights gained from the neurosciences, evolutionary psychology, behavioral economy, anthropology and other disciplines, TMB highlighs current developments and innovative insights in international research. At its apex TMB included more than twenty researchers or affiliated researchers from other faculties and universities, investigated – empirically and theoretically - a rich variety of different topics such as cheating detection, empathy, critical thinking, sibling incest, free will, religion, art, irrational beliefs, etc., and frequently organized Moral Brain Meetings from 2005 until 2013. International conferences were visited, contacts with international leading experts were maintained and TMB was integrated in a more broader FWO-sponsored network HEBEN (Human Evolution and Behavior Network).
