AR3T Coffee Hour Series Returns Winter 2021/22
Coffee Hour brings together individuals in a small-group setting with interest in Regenerative Rehabilitation for informal discussions with AR3T’s directors about where the field has been, where it is going, and potential career trajectories. These sessions are intended for junior faculty, medical residents, and trainees. Join us for the next Coffee Hour on Friday, December 3, 2021 @ 1:00PM EST with Dr. Michael Boninger (University of Pittsburgh).

Neuromodulation for Brain and Spinal Cord Functional Restoration in Neurological Disorders Workshop Recording
The Neuromodulation for Brain and Spinal Cord Functional Restoration in Neurological Disorders Workshop, hosted by AR3T & NC NM4R, was held virtually and free of charge on Friday, November 5, 2021. This workshop introduced methods for targeted neuromodulation as an adjunct to regenerative rehabilitation approaches. Dr. Jon Wolpaw addressed the importance of merging regenerative rehabilitation and neuromodulation when he discussed operant conditioning of evoked responses as a potential way to train new neural circuits generated regenerative medicine techniques.

NC NM4R
Fall Speaker Series
This series will explore diverse neuromodulation methods with a focus on rehabilitation. Researchers and clinicians of all career stages (including students and fellows), who are interested in neuromodulation and novel rehabilitation techniques, are invited. At each meeting, a speaker will present a topic, study, or grant proposal relating to the improvement of rehabilitation techniques through the use of neuromodulation. The attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, exchange ideas and opinions, and develop informal discussions. This monthly meeting aims to present innovative ideas and cutting-edge methods for clinicians and researchers.
Join us Wednesday, December 1st at 12 PM EST, for our first speaker, Dr. Bashar Badran who will be presenting "Developing Novel Thereapeutics - Focused ultrasound and auricular neuromodulation as Alternatives to Implantable Braiin Stimulation." Register for Dr. Badran's talk today.

Webinar Recording - OpenSense: Analyzing Motion with Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) Data: OpenSense is a new workflow within the OpenSim musculoskeletal simulation software that provides tools to use IMU data to analyze motion. In our latest webinar, Carmichael Ong from Stanford University presented an overview of OpenSense and the results of a validation study examining traditional marker-based inverse kinematics versus IMU-based inverse kinematics. Dr. Ong also presented a short hands-on tutorial to teach participants how to use OpenSense with an example using gait data. Watch the recording | Watch the tutorial

Don't forget to register for the 4th International Brain Stimulation Conference 2021 which will be held in person in Charleston, South Carolina, USA.
This meeting will continue the successful multidisciplinary broad approach of the prior meetings. 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 provide opportunity to discuss the science that is driving advances in this field.
