Thank you to all attendees to the NSF DARE Conference: Transformative Opportunities for Modeling in Neurorehabilitation that was held for two days at USC on March 3-4, 2023, co-hosted by the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and University of Washington!

See the collection of papers published from this conference in the Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation (JNER):

NSF DARE—Transforming modeling in neurorehabilitation: Four threads for catalyzing progress

NSF DARE—transforming modeling in neurorehabilitation: a patient-in-the-loop framework

Transforming modeling in neurorehabilitation: clinical insights for personalized rehabilitation

NSF DARE—transforming modeling in neurorehabilitation: perspectives and opportunities from US funding agencies

The conference was supported by the Directorate for Engineering (ENG):  the Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems’ (ENG/CBET) Disability and Rehabilitation Engineering (DARE) program and the Division of Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation’s (ENG/CMMI) Biomechanics and Mechanobiology (BMMB) program.

This conference brought together leading engineers, clinicians, computational scientists, rehabilitation researchers, and client advocates to discuss the state of the science and identify transformative opportunities for computational modeling to advance neurorehabilitation.

This hybrid in-person & remote conference featured keynote speakers, poster sessions, podium presentations, and a banquet dinner at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
