About Us

Advances in understanding of the brain both in healthy individuals and those suffering from a disorder is leading to groundbreaking discoveries and engineering solutions. Even so, development and deployment of effective neurotechnology and means of studying the brain through neuroimaging techniques and machine learning requires an integrated approach as well as close collaboration among the neuroengineering community, neuroscientists, and clinical practitioners. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners across academia, industry, and the clinical profession to highlight innovative neurotechnology and brain research methods, emphasizing their potential to improve understanding of the brain and address a wide range of disorders to improve the human condition.

The Workshop program consists of three tracks covering emerging neurotechnologies, machine learning and computer paradigms for brain discovery, and clinical applications and impact. Each track includes a keynote speaker and invited speakers who will discuss their work in the context of larger issues in each of these topic areas. Other program highlights are panel sessions on the ethical implications of neurotechnology and the development of standards, clinical priorities and challenges, and future growth areas in these emerging fields.
