2026 IEEE Brain Discovery & Neurotechnology Workshop

Researchers from neuroscience, engineering and clinical practice will examine technologies for understanding brain function and treating disorders. Three tracks cover emerging neural recording and imaging methods, machine learning and brain-inspired computation, and clinical translation through neuroprosthetics, neuromodulation and brain-computer interfaces. The programme connects multiscale measurement, interpretable models, multimodal data and biomarkers with deployment challenges. Panels consider ethics, standards, clinical needs, careers and funding; posters, live demonstrations, exhibits and an aging-brain symposium support exchange.
