"Golden Age" of Neuroscience Discovery

Did you know that in 2024, scientists combine AI with a 'minibrain' or cerebral organoids to make hybrid computers? Researchers plugged a "brain organoid" into an AI system, using the neural tissue to help complete computational tasks. Could such endeavor mark a step toward "biocomputers”?  Could it lead to more insight into how the brain works and how it is affected by neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

 

I invite you to join us this year to explore the exciting “Golden Age” Neuroscience Discovery in 2025 as we hear from experts on innovations  for Headache, Pain, Epilepsy, Sleep Apnea, MS, Neuromuscular diseases, Alzheimer and Parkinson’s diseases.
