Description

Neurons and Electrons: Integrating neural devices with the human body


Our program explores devices that interact with the body's neural network: the arena near and intermediate term for their research, development and implementation/ ultimate deployment. Such devices may affect any or all of the five senses, as well as muscle control and other body functions. Their prospects include links between the brain and the limbs, connecting organs and tissues despite neural pathways that have been damaged, or mediating between brain and prosthetics where body parts need to be replaced.


We will examine neural-devices integration with the body and the prospects in the near and intermediate term for additional product development, FDA approval, and actual use with patients. We will focus on the entrepreneur’s perspective but also on the science and the “wow” factor in integrating technology and the human body. Our speakers will share their views on the opportunities and challenges of the field, and give a clearer view of what’s coming our way.
