Sessions/Tracks

Track1: Brain disorders

Brain disorders engulf the major psychological and physiological anomalies caused due to various brain injuries or passed down genetically. Brain Disorders have been deemed as one of the major health issue concerning our society. Brain disorders mostly involve regions like memory, sensation, and visual reception of our brain that are susceptible to injury or any type of illness.

Autism
Migraine
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Aneurysm
Arteriovenous Malformation.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Track2: Neurodegenerative Disorder

Neurodegenerative disorder is the progressive loss of structure or function of the neurons, including the death of the neurons. Examples of neurodegenerative diseases include Multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, Motor neurone diseases, and Huntington's disease. Such diseases are mostly incurable, resulting in progressive degeneration or death of the neuron cells. Neurodegeneration can found in the many different levels of neuronal circuitry ranging from the molecular to systemic.

Dementia and Aging
Prion disease
Motor neuron diseases (MND)
Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA)
Guillain-Barré Syndrome

Track3: Dementia

Dementia is the name given to a group of symptoms affecting the daily functioning of an individual through long and gradual impairment in the ability to think and remember. Dementia involves a greater decline in an individual’s brain functioning than what is expected due to aging. It may include problems like personality changes and emotional problems, loss of motivation without affecting the general consciousness of the person.

Vascular dementia
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB)
Cortical dementia
Diagnosis and Prognosis of Dementia
Mixed dementia
Animal Models for Dementia Research

Track4: Central Nervous System

The Central Nervous System is the main body governing the integration and response of sensory stimulus. It consists of the brain and the spinal cord, which on exposure to trauma, infections, degeneration, structural defects, blood flow disruption, or autoimmune disorders can compromise normal functioning of our body. Side effects of such disorder include loss of feeling or tingling, loss of sight or double vision, impaired mental ability, lack of coordination, muscle rigidity.

Addiction
CNS Neoplasia
Neurocognitive Disorders
Therapeutics for CNS Disorders
Depression and Anxiety
CNS Depressants and Stimulants

Track5: Brain Stroke

Stroke is defined as the condition where there is poor blood flow to the brain, resulting in cell death. There are two types of stroke 1) ischemic stroke which is defined as the lack of blood flow to the brain, 2) haemorrhagic stroke which occurs due to bleeding. Symptoms of a brain stroke involve inability to move or paralysis of one side of the body, dizziness, or loss of vision. If the symptoms last for less than one or two hours then it is known as a transient ischemic attack or mini-stroke. A haemorrhagic stroke is mostly associated with a severe headache. The symptoms of a stroke can be permanent.

Thrombotic stroke
Embolic stroke
Cerebral hypo-perfusion
Intracerebral haemorrhage
Transient Ischemic Stroke
Stroke associated with addiction

Track6: Psychiatric disorder

Psychiatric disorder is described as a diagnosed mental illness that significantly affects the thinking, mood and behaviour of an individual, substantially increasing the risk of disability, pain, death, or loss of freedom. Depression, Anxiety disorders, Personality disorders, Schizophrenia fall under this category.

Anxiety Disorders
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Eating Disorders
Adult Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD/ADD)
Hypomanic Episode
Postpartum Depression


Track7: Neurological disorders

Disorders affecting the central nervous system or the peripheral nervous system that can impair that impair the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerve or neuromuscular function are termed as Neurological disorders. Symptoms caused due to structural, biochemical or electrical abnormalities in the central or peripheral nervous system include paralysis, muscle weakness, loss of sensation, confusion and pain.

Dysautonomia
Central neuropathy
Cranial Nerve Disorder
Multiple Sclerosis
Sleep disorders
Mental Health

Track8: Brain Injury

Brain Injury is a common term which is used to describe any trauma to the head or brain but most specifically to the brain itself. There are several types of head injuries may occur such as skull fractures, intracranial haemorrhage like subdural or epidural hematoma. Treatment of a head or brain injury depends mainly on the cause and the severity of the injury.

Hematoma
Hemorrhage
Concussion
Skull fracture
Diffuse axonal injury
Cognitive behavioral therapy
Decompressive craniectomy

Track9: Peripheral neuropathy

Peripheral neuropathy is neural impairment of nerves that carry messages to and from the brain and spinal cord from and to the rest of the body. Peripheral neuropathy may be chronic or acute. Acute neuropathies demand for urgent diagnosis. Based on the type of nerve involved or the underlying cause, peripheral neuropathies can be classified accordingly.

Brachial neuritis
Cranial neuritis
Optic neuritis
Vestibular neuritis
Anticonvulsant
Narcotic treatment

Track10: Neuroimaging and Radiology

Neuroimaging and Radiology are techniques for producing images of the structure and activity of the brain or other parts of the nervous system by the use of magnetic resonance, computerized tomography or other radiations used at an acceptable and harmless level.

Computed axial tomography
Diffuse optical imaging
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
Macrocephaly
Neurobionics
Bio-molecular therapies in neural regeneration

Track11: Neurorehabilitation

Neurorehabilitation or Neurological rehabilitation is a doctor-supervised complex medical assistance aimed to aid people with neurological diseases, injury or disorders and help improve function, minimize symptoms and improve the well-being of the patient.

Speech therapy
Depression management
Bladder and bowel retraining
Nutritional counselling
Help with activities of daily living (ADLs)
Vocational counselling


Track12: Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery is a highly specialized medical field which focuses on the surgical treatment of brain and spinal disorders. It is a complex surgical procedure which involves diagnosis, therapy, and rehabilitation of disorders affecting any part of the nervous system.

Cervical Spine Surgery

Neuropharmacology is the branch that deals with the study of effect of various drugs on our nervous system. This is the main domain that helps interpret various invasive and non-invasive methods for improvement of neurological disorders.

Neuroanesthesia
NeuroPharmacotherapy
Behavioral Neuropharmacology
Pharmacotherapeutics
Epinephrine for drug based treatment

Track14: Neuropsychiatry

Neuropsychiatry is the interface of psychiatry and neurology that investigates the link between mental and organic disease of the brain. It is a sub-category of Psychiatry with the main aim to obtain better understanding on the link between mind, body and behaviour.

Mind/brain monism
Autism
Schizophrenia
Obsessive-compulsive disorder
Auditory hallucination
