The Ohio State University Stanley D. and Joan H. Ross Center for Brain Health and Performance is excited to host the Inaugural Global Brain Health and Performance Summit. 

We will host the top scientists from academia, industry and government to discuss the latest innovations in research and development of human performance. Using the Sense-Assess-Augment framework, the summit will advance brain health through discovery of methods that optimize brain function.

SENSE: Addresses current and emerging technologies that provide information about physiological or biochemical indicators relating to health and performance.

ASSESS: Focuses on approaches to extract meaning from the data gathered during sensing activities.

AUGMENT: Investigates general and context-dependent enhancement strategies, methodologies and technologies that aim to optimize health and performance. 

Summit contributors will discuss cutting-edge concepts and applications across the continuum of Sense-Assess-Augment. Within each segment, participants will explore research, development, integration, commercialization and future directions. Keynote addresses will demonstrate the promise of applying innovative technologies to personalized health, recovery and performance improvements across multiple domains. 

Target Audience:
The Ohio State University Global Brain Health and Performance Summit is intended for Physical Therapists, Strength Coaches, Athletic Trainers, Neurologists, Neurosurgeons, Psychiatrists, Physiatrists, Psychologists, Nurses, Military Scientists and Neuroscientists.
