[Comp-neuro] Last Call for Abstracts in Brain/Computer/Machine Interfacing and Neuromodulation

[Camille Grigsby-Rocca]

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the final call for abstracts for Neuromodulation: The Science Conference, for the Neurovations Awards for Scientific Excellence in Neuromodulation. Submissions are due this Friday, April 29, 2016 for our upcoming neuroscience summit, slated for May 25-29, 2016 in San Francisco. See the Abstract Submission Guidelines here<http://ntsconference.com/neurovations-award/>.

The Scientific Committee is accepting abstracts for posters presenting original basic or clinical scientific research or updates in brain/computer/machine interfacing, neuromodulation of the brain and nervous system, and bioengineering. Three prizes in the amounts of $3000, $2000, and $1000 are available for the posters selected by the committee. Awards will be presented on the final day of the conference. All posters must be attended by a registered conference attendee.

Early registration rates are available through April 29.
Discounted lodging rates at the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero, San Francisco, run until April 29.
Abstracts will be accepted through April 29.

We would be grateful if you would share this information with your colleagues, and hope to see you at our meeting next month. More information is available at ntsconference.com - I have also included more below on our poster requirements and meeting, including our full Scientific Committee. Please email education at neurovations.com directly with any further questions.
