SPEAKERS: Frost & Sullivan Technical Insights Research Analyst Bhargav Rajan
LONDON – 26 November 2014 – The human brain has been an organ of great fascination and concepts such as mind control, telepathic communications and brain-computer interfaces, all of which have fueled many science-fiction stories. How realistic are these concepts? Can we expect them to be realized in our lifetime? Frost & Sullivan’s Technical Insights practice explores the advances made in the nervous system modulation space and presents a snapshot of the current and future applications.
Neuromodulation is the concept of modulating the nervous system – the brain, the spinal cord and the thousands of nerves in the human body. Deep brain stimulation and vagus nerve stimulation have been practiced clinically for many years treating physical, psychiatric and psychological conditions. With an aging population at hand, the probability of age-related mental illnesses is high. Neuromodulation is expected to play a crucial role in this scenario. This webinar will also examine more complex technologies such as brain-computer interfaces, neural prosthesis, bio-neurofeedback and many other convergent and collaborative scenarios impacting both medical and non-medical applications.
