BSC 2015 - 1st International Brain Stimulation Conference

Brain stimulation methods are new approaches to research how the brain works and to treat diseases. In many ways the field of brain stimulation is a new paradigm shift, replacing the prominent neuropsychopharmacological paradigm of the past three decades.
Currently there are single theme meetings around the world involving brain stimulation methods that are either technique or profession based. This international meeting, organized by Elsevier and sponsored by and integrated with the journal Brain Stimulation: Basic, Translational, and Clinical Research in Neuromodulation, will be the first ever brain stimulation meeting with integration of all of the various techniques and subspecialties involved in this exciting field.
Basic scientists will attend lectures by engineers and psychiatrists; cognitive neuroscientists will mingle with neurosurgeons and brain modelling physicists. This fertile cross-disciplinary meeting will set the stage for the next generation of advances in this field.
