SAVE THE DATE: Neuromod 2024 is scheduled for April 11th and 12th, 2024!
Welcome
The Minnesota Neuromodulation Symposium organized by the Institute for Engineering in Medicine (IEM) and MnDRIVE Brain Conditions. This conference is apart of the IEM Innovation Week. Neuromodulation is a rapidly-growing field, encompassing a wide spectrum of implantable and non-invasive technology-based approaches for the treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Advancing the field of neuromodulation represents challenges in:
Developing engineering methodologies
Understanding mechanisms of neuromodulation at cellular and system levels
Clinical translation to treat patients
Shaping the regulatory process for emerging technologies and approaches
This symposium is aimed at bringing together basic scientists, engineers, clinicians, industrial practitioners and entrepreneurs to discuss challenges and opportunities in neuromodulation. The symposium will consist of plenary presentations by leaders in academia, industry and government, and poster presentations to exchange ideas in this exciting field. The symposium, which is part of IEM Innovation Week, will be held immediately following the Design of Medical Devices Conference. We look forward to seeing you on April 20 and 21, 2023.
Registration closed on April 10th. Onsite registration will be available.
