Tutorials Workshop

Wednesday, May 25, 2011

6F, Sinoway Hotel, Harbin

Venue: (8:30 - 12:00, Room 1, Haitang Hall)

Neural Rehabilitation on SensoriMotor Functions

Organizers:

Jiping He - Arizona State University, USA; Huazhong University of Sci Tech, Wuhan, China

Bi Sheng - Head and Professor of Department of PM&R; Chinese PLA General Hospital; P.R.China

Workshop Abstract and Objectives:

Aging population growth and more survivors of neurological trauma and diseases impose a significant demand for care and rehabilitation facilities. In this workshop we assembled a group of experts who have been pursuing research to understand the mechanisms for sensorimotor function recovery and develop systems to facilitate and improve the care and rehabilitation to help patients regain independent living. From their experience and discoveries valuable knowledge and key issues to effective rehabilitation and functional devices will be introduced and presented. Finally a panel discussion will be presented for all attendees to comment and discuss their concerns and how to contribute to finding solutions for the urgent societal challenge facing China and the world.
