This spring will bring all innovative researchers together

in one place for the advancement of neuroscience!

The International Association of Neurorestoratology is hosting the seventh joint conference  for bringing all stake holders involved the neuro and regenerative medicine fields together on a common platform, to share, discuss and address the various aspects which arise while translating bench-side research for the improvement of treating patients who are suffering from neurological ailments.

The conference will have prominent researchers and clinicians from all over the world presenting their own scientific information on a wide range of topics which cover basic science research and clinical work involving the fields of Neurorestoratology:

• Traumatic

• Pediatric

• Hereditary and geriatric.

The subjects covered include:

• Tissue engineering

• Bioengineering

• Regenerative medicine

• Cellular transplants

• Stem cell therapy

• Neurorehabilitation

• Neuromodulation

• Neuroprosthesis

• Neurorestorative pharmacotherapy and other related topics.

Conferences:

• 1st Stem Cell Society of India Annual Conference,

• 11th Global College of Neuroprotection & Neuroregeneration Annual Conference &

• 2nd Indian Federation of Neurorehabilitation Annual Conference

The Conference will also be hosting a new section of debated this spring called the Neurorestoratological Youth Forum, that will be dedicated to outstanding papers submitted by young authors.

Roundtable Discussions are yet again an important part in 2014 IANR Event and will include:

• 27th Feb: Neurorestoratology in Cerebrovascular disorders (Stroke & Dementia)

IANR 2014 Organizers

Why Attend IANR 2014?

• To be a part of the international joint effort of improving both basic and clinical research in neurorestoratology
• To enhance scientific exchanges among countries
• To break the barriers among basic research of neurorestoratology, research and development of medicine and clinical medicine
• To make direct connection & shorten the process of bench to bedside (lab research to clinical application)
• To reflect the current idea of international translational medicine
• To transfer the achievements of basic research on neurorestoratology into new clinical strategies
• To make patients benefit more from medical achievements.

About SCSI

The Stem Cell Society of India (SCSI) is a national body that was created to bring together professionals doing both research as well as therapy in the field of Stem cells & Regenerative Medicine from across the country.  

The society focuses on accelerating the process of translating basic research to actual treatment and bringing it to the bedside of patients suffering from serious, debilitating and incurable disorders. It is working towards the formulation of ethical principles for the practice of stem cell therapy in India. It plays an active role in assisting & guiding various governmental regulatory bodies and other professional bodies, while concretizing guidelines in alignment with the advances that are occurring in the field.  

About IFNR

The Indian Federation of NeuroRehabilitation (IFNR) is an Indian Non-Governmental Organization which brings together medical & paramedical professionals with common interest in the field of neurological rehabilitation. It was started with the aim to treat, manage & rehabilitate patients suffering from neurological disorders and provide these services to the poor and needy.

IFNR attempts to provide the underprivileged of society with equal opportunities of treatment and cure through our various programmes/events/conferences across country.
