Pre-Conference Dinner Workshop at ASNR 2025 | Building Clinical Practice Guidelines for Implantable Brain-Computer Interfaces
Pre-Conference Dinner Workshop
The iBCI-CC is excited to partner with the American Society of Neurorehabilitation (ASNR) to host a Pre-Conference Dinner Workshop, ahead of the 2025 ASNR Annual Meeting!
Join us for a collaborative discussion on building clinical practice guidelines for iBCIs
As implantable brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) move from research settings into clinical practice, there is an emerging interest in establishing evidence-based guidelines for how iBCIs will be incorporated into clinical practice. This dinner workshop will provide an overview of current approaches to the iBCI care pathway — from diagnosis and referral to implantation and ongoing management — and foster multiprofessional discussions on how to address critical gaps. Through speaker insights and audience discussion, this workshop will explore key considerations and next steps for developing guidelines to support the safe and effective integration of iBCIs into clinical care.
Date/Time: Tuesday, April 22nd, 2025, 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM ET
Doors open at 5:30 PM ET
Workshop begins at 6:00 PM ET
Location: Grand Hyatt Buckhead, Atlanta, GA (no virtual option)
Cost: $40/person (includes dinner)
REGISTRATION DETAILS
Registration Deadline: Monday, March 31st
