Key Highlights
Noninvasive Brain Stimulation: From Pain to Inflammatory to Post-Viral Symptoms
Explore the therapeutic potential of direct stimulation of brain vasculature and transcranial direct current stimulation for managing inflammatory and post-infection disorders.
Featured Speakers: Marom Bikson, Giuseppina Pilloni, Hamad Ekhtiari, and others share insights on addiction medicine, pain management, and long-term COVID-19 effects.
The Full Spectrum of Neuromodulation Therapies
Attendees will experience a series of transformative plenary sessions that illuminate the forefront of neuromodulation. From exploring the future of brain-machine interfaces and the impact of big data and AI in neuromodulation, to delving into the efficacy of neuromodulation in complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) and chronic pain, these sessions provide unparalleled insights.
The Full Spectrum of Neuromodulation Therapies
Sessions Covering: Spine mechanisms, neuromodulation for obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression, and strategies for post-stroke rehabilitation.
Featured Technologies: Learn about high-definition tDCS, spinal cord stimulation, and peripheral nerve stimulation techniques pushing the boundaries of treatment.
Advanced Topics in Neuromodulation
Cutting-Edge Research: Discover the latest on low-intensity ultrasound neuromodulation, sub-threshold neuromodulation, and the implications for epilepsy surgery and chronic pain management.
Giant of Neuromodulation Award: Join us in celebrating excellence in neuromodulation research and clinical practice. As well as, Champion of the INS Award and Best Abstract Awards.
