Tenth World Congress on Brain Injury
The IBIA International Scientific Planning Committee and National Scientific Planning Committee would like to invite you to attend the Tenth World Congress on Brain Injury, to be held in March 19 - 22, 2014, San Francisco, California.
The IBIA World Congress is the largest gathering of international professionals working in the field of brain injury. Delegates are comprised of physicians, psychologists and neuropsychologists, therapists, social workers, nurses, case managers, legal professionals, advocates and all others working in the field of brain injury.
The Tenth World Congress program will feature internationally recognized invited speakers, platform lectures, workshops, short oral presentations and poster sessions. The theme of the congress will be Neurotrauma, Technology, and Neurorehabilitation.
The aim of the Tenth World Congress is to provide an opportunity for establishing collegial relationships with international professionals focused on the care and/or service of persons with acquired brain injury and/or the science of brain injury research. State of the art research will be presented dealing with information spanning from basic science to clinical (coma to community) aspects of brain injury.
Finally, the Congress seeks to provide didactic opportunities for clinicians interested in advancing their knowledge in brain injury science, medicine and care. The official language of the Congress is English, and sessions are open to all delegates registering to attend the event.
1st Annual International Conference on Neuroscience and Neurobiology Research (CNN 2013)
November 18-19, 2013 Bangkok, Thailand
Neuroscience is the study of the nervous system development, its structure, and its purpose. It also discusses what occurs when individuals have neurological, psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. Traditionally a branch of Biology, it is now considered an interdisciplinary science which includes other fields such as mathematics, linguistics, engineering, computer science, chemistry, philosophy, psychology, and medicine. On the other hand, neurobiology is a complex science referring specifically to the biology of the nervous system.
The Annual International Conference on Neuroscience and Neurobiology Research (CNN) aims to explore the study of the nervous system and the different aspects of the nervous system. Through networking and sharing, CNN will provide an opportunity for practitioners and educators to exchange research evidence, models of best practice and innovative ideas on neuroscience and neurobiology.

10th International Congress on Non-Motor Dysfunctions in Parkinson’s Disease and Related Disorders
December 4-7, 2014 Nice, France
Join the 10th International Congress on Non-Motor Dysfunctions in Parkinson’s Disease and Related Disorders after several successful years of providing the world’s leading specialists with unparalleled access to the latest discoveries and developments in the study of the etiology and therapy of non-motor features of Parkinson’s disease.
NMDPD 2014 is a leading annual educational forum offering a unique opportunity to deliberate on brain diseases and how they contribute to cognitive decline, and to identify the specific psychological markers, biochemical and genetic factors of Parkinson’s dementia and of dementia with Lewy bodies. Join your colleagues and discover the latest developments in our understanding of non motor aspects of the basal ganglia, pathological abnormalities related to PD and the genetic mutations resulting in movement disorders.
NMDPD Congresses enable you to network with leading neurologists, psychiatrists, psychologists and other multidisciplinary specialists from around the world and exchange information of take-home value. After a highly successful gathering in Asia, NMDPD will be returning to its European roots. Join your colleagues in Nice for four days of sun, fun and unexpected treasures in the capital of the French Riviera.
Embodied Music Cognition (EMuCog) Conference
22 – 23 Jul 2013 Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom
Over the past few decades, developments in the field of cognitive science have slowly but surely reshaped our understanding of the relationship between the brain, body, and world. Furthermore, these movements have developed concurrently with experimental and theoretical work on "embodied" human activities, such as various forms of artistic practices and sensorimotor tasks. The purpose of this conference is therefore to explore the current state of the field relating to music and music cognition, as well as critically examine contemporary questions and problems elicited by such research. Following Pearce and Rohrmeir's (2012) recent overview of music cognition, we are interested in continuing to expand the dialogue into questions such as "Why should music be of interest to cognitive scientists?", "What role does it play in human cognition?" and "Can [the cognitive scientific study of music] generate real insights into the functioning of the mind?" Moreover, following from the fact that cognitive science has an inherently interdisciplinary approach – drawing from areas as diverse as cognitive psychology, developmental biology, philosophy, theoretical linguistics, and robotics, among others – we believe such a dialogue must take place between specialists from a multiplicity of academic disciplines.
