Virtual meeting
Location: Online
Dates: December 1 and 4, 2020
This virtual symposium is hosted by the National Center for Adaptive Neurotechnologies and the National Center of Neuromodulation for Rehabilitation. It will focus on the role of activity-dependent spinal cord plasticity in motor control and motor learning in health and disease. The topics addressed will include:
•spinal cord plasticity during motor learning and in response to trauma and disease; interactions between brain and spinal cord plasticity;
•physiological and anatomical mechanisms underlying spinal cord plasticity and its impact on behavior;
•induction and guidance of plasticity in spinal reflex pathways and in corticospinal connections;
•activity-dependent neuromuscular plasticity; and
•therapeutic applications of spinal cord plasticity.
