Nat\u00e1lia\u2019s doctoral research, supervised by doc. JUDr. Mat\u00fa\u0161 Mesar\u010d\u00edk, PhD., LL.M., addresses one of the more underexplored questions in EU fundamental rights law: the legal grounding and protection of the right to (mental) integrity of the person in the age of artificial intelligence. While mental integrity is enshrined in Article 3 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, it remains an insufficiently defined concept, particularly in light of AI systems that can influence cognition, emotion, and decision-making in increasingly sophisticated ways. The dissertation seeks to articulate a clear, doctrinally grounded definition of mental integrity under EU law, and to critically assess whether existing legal instruments, including the AI Act, GDPR, DSA, DMA, and relevant medical and consumer regulations, provide meaningful protection against serious AI-driven threats to this right. The overarching goal is to identify gaps in the current legal framework and to chart a path toward more coherent and effective protection of mental integrity within the EU legal order.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
