Posted on Feb 2, 2013 9:41:00 AM

Arrowhead's 3rd Annual Traumatic Brain Injury Conference

Conference - Washington, D.C., United States

ARROWHEAD'S 3rd Annual Traumatic Brain Injury Conference is bringing researchers, clinicians in industry, academia and the military, and regulators together to discuss how best to achieve the goal of bringing new therapies to market for TBI. In order to do so, there is a strong need for consensus regarding the following key subject areas, which will be covered in depth via plenary sessions and panel sessions at this year's conference:

Coalesce to help guide future clinical trials and assessment of therapy

CTE research

Neuropsychiatric outcomes

Speakers from academia, industry, the military and government will be addressing traumatic brain injury from a variety of perspectives in order to provide attendees with a holistic perspective on the diagnosis, treatment and outcomes associated with traumatic brain injury. To this end, presenters will be addressing the following issues:

Advances in neuroimaging for TBI

Clinical trial design for new TBI therapeutics

Implementation of biomarkers for stratification, outcome prediction and therapeutics intervention monitoring

Pre-clinical modeling and translating results to the clinic

Drug delivery (blood-brain barrier) challenges facing development of new therapies

Treatment of acute as well as post-acute/chronic neurorehabilitation

Halting secondary injury in TBI

Cell therapy potential for TBI

Cognitive measures of TBI and outcomes

Neuroprotection as a therapeutic intervention

Regulatory perspectives on clinical trials and companion diagnostic development and commercialization
