Neuromodulation: The Science

  October 2 - 4 2020 | Napa, California, USA  

   

Managing Complexity, Leveraging Plasticity

Can advanced neuromodulation techniques leverage brain complexity and adaptive plasticity, instead of being hampered by them?


The brain is the most complex organ in the human body, so advanced neuromodulation approaches must manage this complexity. State-of-the-art approaches to brain stimulation that address this complexity through circuit and systems neuromodulation, computational modeling, and closed-loop feedback will be explained at the 2020 Neuromodulation: The Science conference.

All neuromodulation technologies can produce lasting changes in brain function. In many cases, such as after injury, driving remodeling in the brain and body underpins the therapeutic target. More broadly, new concepts of restorative neuroengineering are updating approaches to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders. In all cases, change in device performance over time reflects physiological remodeling. At the 2020 Neuromodulation: The Science conference, the cellular substrates of plasticity during neuromodulation and how these impact treatment efficacy will addressed.

Emerging approaches to both manage complexity and leverage plasticity span implanted and non-invasive neuromodulation technologies. The 2020 Neuromodulation: The Science conference provides attendees with a holistic view of the latest discoveries and technologies impacting all aspects of brain stimulation. Scientific discoveries that are poised to transform clinical care, open up new indications, and support new technology platforms.
Discover the next big ideas in neuromodulation - Join hundreds of clinician scientists, engineers, and neuroscientists at the 2020 Neuromodulation: The Science October 1-4, 2020, in Napa California.

California's Napa Valley is the best-known, most prestigious wine region in America with beautiful scenery and award-winning wines.

Join Co-Chairs and winery owners Dr. Eric Grigsby and Dr. Elliot Krames at a Welcome Reception on Saturday evening, where they will showcase some of their wines.

October in Napa is known as Crush. Visitors from around the world plan their vacations to coincide with the marvelous tapestry of color that adorns the Napa Valley in autumn. This is the season of harvest and the start of the crushing process, when the smell of wine hangs in the air.
