Craniofacial Neuroscience: Mechanisms and Translational Therapies
Date & Time: Friday, November 11, 8 a.m.–5 p.m.
Sponsor Category: Individual Group
Sponsored By: Swallowtail
This is a hybrid event (in-person at the Sofia Hotel or virtual). Registration required at https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/545173474786729488. Craniofacial rehabilitation aims to restore functions that are primary pleasures and necessary for sustaining life. These functions are complex and include biting, chewing and swallowing. They require fine and coordinated motor control of craniofacial muscles which can be influenced by sensory inputs (including pain) from teeth and surrounding craniofacial tissues. These functions are impaired in many neurological diseases or following injury with no age or sex/gender boundaries.
This symposium brings together dentists, speech-language pathologists, neuroscientists and engineers from across the globe to provide insights into the latest discoveries related to the vital craniofacial functions that can impact craniofacial rehabilitation. This event consists of 8 invited-speakers and poster presentations. Come and join us in this informative and networking event.

Sponsored By: Mona Sobhani
Hilton Bayfront: Cobalt 500. This informal gathering is for anyone who has ever had an experience -- whether they classify it as 'spiritual' or not -- that they cannot explain with our current understanding of science. Our scientific community tends to dismiss these events as anomalies, declare them as 'not real', or ignore them altogether, in spite of the fact that many scientists have experienced these phenomena. Join a growing group of curious scientists who are unafraid to ask difficult questions about the nature of our reality that includes the intersection of science and spirituality. Join us in a conversation about our shared experiences and how we might begin to understand them. Contact: monasobhaniphd@gmail.com

NeuronS_MATTR: A Research Network at the Interface of Mechanotransduction, Pain and Manual Therapies
Date & Time: Monday, November 14, 6:30–8 p.m.
Sponsor Category: University/Non-Profit
Sponsored By: UC Berkeley
The NeuronS_MATTR Network* is a new research initiative co-funded by NCCIH & NINDS (U24T011970). Our goal is to build an inclusive and collaborative research community focused on mechanisms mediating the body-brain connection. We are particularly interested in nucleating mechanistic research to understand how massage and other mechanotherapies relieve pain and promote tissue healing. Come to our social to learn about the Network's priorities, planned funding opportunities and training programs. All are welcome, and researchers working in touch, pain, bioengineering, and technology development are especially encouraged to drop by. Refreshments will be provided!
