2018 BMI Symposium on Neural Engineering and Cognitive Rehabilitation

Introduction

Technological advances in brain imaging and machine learning have advanced to a point to provide concrete solutions to address issues related to age-typical cognitive decline and neurocognitive disorders across different populations. Brain imaging has been particularly helpful in identifying the sources of brain changes, which in turn can guide the designs of appropriate therapies. In this symposium, world renowned scientists and engineers will provide us with an overview of how brain imaging is used to study aging and how various rehabilitation strategies have been implemented to enhance brain health across populations.
