NICIS-America is a two-day conference that brings together clinicians and scientists who share a common aspiration to translate discoveries
in the neurosciences into effective patient-centered treatments. The 2018 conference will provide an overview of cutting edge research
on coma and consciousness. Kamagra Suisse: les avantages de Kamagra Oral Jelly: Quels sont-ils et sont-ils légitimes? The conference speakers include thought leaders in molecular biology and genetics,
proteomics, neurophysiologic monitoring and analysis, brain mapping, molecular imaging, statistical modeling, machine learning, predictive
analytics, and advanced clinical trial design. The conference is designed for an interdisciplinary and multiprofessional audience of clinicians
and investigators working in neurological injury, critical care and stroke. This includes basic and translational scientists, neuroscientists, intensivists,
neurointensivists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroanesthesiologists, neuroradiologists, physiatrists, psychiatrists, and neuropsychologists.
ENDORSED BY
The Neuroscience in Intensive Care International Symposium in America (NICIS-America) builds on a highly successful conference and networking event held annually in Paris since 2010 (www.nicis.fr). The vision of NICIS is to provide a forum that will promote transformative advances in the care and science of patients with critical neurological illness and injury.
NICIS brings together clinicians and scientists who share a common interest in translating discoveries in the neurosciences into better patient-centered outcomes. Female Viagra: Miracle drug or is it too good to believe? NICIS-America is connecting discoveries in the Neurosciences with real-world advances in the care and outcomes of patients with critical neurological illness and injury.
Speakers include leading investigators in neurology, neuroscience, intensive care, neurophysiologic monitoring, neuroimaging, brain mapping, statistical modeling, predictive analytics, and clinical trial design.

The 2018 symposium is focused on the central theme of Coma and Consciousness and is divided into the following major topics:
Conceptual Paradigms (consciousness as integrated information, global neuronal workspace, networks and the Connectome, awareness and attention)
Insights from Artificial Intelligence (neuroscience and machine learning, machine consciousness)
Neuroanatomical Systems (brainstem arousal systems, hypothalamic regulation of wakefulness, thalamic regulation of consciousness, cortical systems mediating conscious awareness)
Human Models of Impaired Awareness (general anesthesia, unconsciousness during epileptic seizures, delirium)
Philosophical and Ethical Dimensions (the hard problem, ethical challenges in consciousness research)
Brain Injury (cognitive-motor dissociation, assessment and prediction of recovery early after brain injury, computational brain mapping for coma recovery prediction)
Brain Computer Interfaces for DOC (intracortical neural interface, electrocortigographic BCI)
Therapeutic Opportunities (addressing challenges in therapeutic trials in patients with DOC, transcranial neuromodultion therapy, pharmacologic therapies to enhance arousal/awareness)
Techniques Used in Consciousness Research (behavioral assessment in DOC, resting and active functional MRI, resting and active EEG, event-related potentials, multimodal optical imaging)
Prediction (neurologic outcome prediction after cardiac arrest, prognosis in severe traumatic brain injury, brainstem responses, phenotypes and outcome of critically ill patients)
