13^th International Conference on Neurology and Brain Disorders November 15-16, 2018 Osaka, Japan

Brain disorders, including developmental, psychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases are chronic and incurable conditions whose disabling effects may continue for years. Brain disorders emerge as leading contributors to global disease burden, in terms of human suffering and economic cost. 

Child neurology refers to a branch of medicine that deals with the management and diagnosis of neurological conditions in neonates, children, infants and adolescents. The discipline of child neurology encompasses diseases and disorders of the brain, peripheral nervous system, spinal cord, autonomic nervous system and blood vessels that affects individuals in these age groups.

Neurophysiology is a medical process which aims to aid and recovery from nervous system injury. The study of the functions of the nervous system. Rehabilitation is an access to reduce nervous system abscesses thereby increasing the neural repair. Neural rehabilitation program is an aimed to create awareness about the neurological disorders and its diagnosis.

Neurological Disorders are disorders of the neural system occur when the brain is damaged by health conditions, injury or disease. The three brain chemicals noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin are involved in both brain and body functions.  The goal of this session is to understand the Origin, Genesis, Causes and Source of various types of Neural disorders. The causes of brain disorders: Tumor, Stroke, Brain’s electrical pathway, Brain trauma, Viral infections and Genesis of Brain.

Neuroimmunology is a branch of immunology  that deals with the inter relationships of the immune responses, nervous system and autoimmune disorders. Its deals with particularly fundamental and applied neurovirology, neuropathology, neurobiology, neurology, neurochemistry, neuromuscular research, neuroendocrinology neuropharmacology and psychology, which involve either immunologic methodology.

The brain and nervous system are target for certain infections and may also be indirectly affected by  viral or parasitic infections, systemic bacterial and their treatment. Some pathogens, such as West Nile Virus, Borrelia burgdorferi, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), syphilis and other viral brain infections occur in otherwise healthy persons. Other infections, like fungal infections or rarer parasites tend to most commonly affect people with reduced immune systems from immunosuppressive therapy,cancer, chemotherapy or transplantation. 

The peripheral nervous system is a part of the nervous system that consists of the nerves, spinal cord and ganglia outside of the brain. The peripheral nervous system consists of sensory neurons which are running from stimulus receptors and informs the Central Nervous System of the stimuli and motor neurons running from the CNS to the muscles and glands are called effectors. This session also includes Diabetic Nerve Problems, Thoracic outlet syndrome, somatic nervous system, Bipolar Disorder and Challenges of CNS Translational Research.

Some disorders to be discussed under this category are:  Neuropathic pain syndromes, Bipolar disorder, Migraine, Autonomic dysreflexia  neuropathy, accessory nerve disorder, CNS disorder and structural defects, Facial nerve paralysis and Meningitis.

Neuromuscular disorders are disorders of the nerves that control the voluntary muscles. One of the causes is the immune system disorder and genetic. More than 2 million people in the United States are affected by such form of neuromuscular diseases and about 30% of them are under the age18. Diagnosis includes NCV test, biochemical, genetic test, a multi-step process like muscle biopsy etc. The motive of this session is to understand the origin of Muscular dystrophy, Lambert-Eaton syndrome and neuromuscular junction disorder. Further there will be an interactive conversation on Hyper reflexia, Spasticy and its prevention. 

Neurosurgery refers to the medical specialty dedicated to the diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of disorders that affects our nervous system i.e spinal cord, brain, peripheral nerves, and extra-cranial cerebrovascular system. Developed in the first half of the twentieth century neurosurgery has witnessed till date exponential advances in intensive care, technology and sophisticated non-invasive procedures. This has undoubtedly have widened the scope of neurosurgical practice. Paediatric neurosurgery, Functional neurosurgery, Neurovascular surgery, Traumatology, Neuro-oncology, Skull-base surgery, Spinal surgery are the different categories of neurosurgery

Neuropathology is the study of diseases related to nervous system tissue, usually in the form of either small whole autopsies or surgical biopsies. Neuropathology is a subspecialty of anatomic pathology, neurology, and neurosurgery. Diseases with diverse the etiologic and genetic features have very similar clinical and pathologic characteristics. From the Neuropathological point of view, types and incidences of neuropathologic changes and the diseases that they produce correlate with the major periods of life.

Neuroimaging is the visual function of brain and nervous system. Through neuroimaging diagnosis of current status and progression of neurodegenerative, psychiatric, intracranial disease is possible. Neuroimaging includes various techniques such as PET, MRI, and CT for diagnosis.

Brain engineering or Neural engineering can be used to understand, replace, repair, enhance and otherwise exploit the properties of the neural systems and Neuro-computing  are the study of neurons function in terms of information processing property of structures that make up the nervous system. The current researches in the field of neural engineering include: neural networking, Neural imaging and Biomolecular therapies in neural regeneration,  Biological neural networking, Neurorobotics, Neuro hydrodynamics and clinical treatment, Engineering strategies for repair.

Neuroplasticity also known as brain plasticity. It is an umbrella term that encompasses both non-synaptic plasticity and synaptic plasticity. It refers to change in synapses and neural pathways  due to changes in  environment, neural processes, thinking, behavior and emotions. The motive of this session is to understand the neuro-plasticity, advances in the Neurite remodeling and How to increase Neural-Connections.

Neuropsychiatry is the branch of Neurology that deals with neural and mental disorders  attributable to diseases of the nervous system. It preceded current disciplines of neurology and psychiatry, which had common. Psychiatry and neurology subsequently split aparts and are typical practiced separately. Clinical neuropsychology is a subspecialty of clinical psychology that specialises in assessment and treatment of patients with brain disease or injury. Epilepsy is the third common neurological disorder in the Europe after stroke, and Alzheimer’s disease. 

Neuropharmacology is the study of drugs that affect cellular functions in the neural mechanisms and nervous system, through which they influence behavior. Molecular neuropharmacology involve the study of neurons and their neurochemical interactions with the overall motive of developing new drugs that have beneficial effects on nervous system .This session also includes to group think the alteration in psychiatric diseases, neuromodulation and the recent Drug development in the field of Neuro-immunological disorders.

Neurological Nursing is very challenging nursing specialty dealing with nursing diagnosis, assessment and management of many neural disorders for which nurses provides patient care. This includes brain injuries, trauma, stroke, seizures, infections, headaches and aneurysms as well as a host of other neurological complexities. Over an estimated half billion people worldwide are affected by neurological diseases and disorders. 9 million people in the United Kindom alone suffer from neurological conditions.

In order to accelerate the discoveries of novel diagnostic therapy,  gathering of neurology researchers is encouraged in order to discuss on neural disorder and treatment, Neurogenesis, Nerve injury and repair and headache,  and last but not the least some new therapeutics evolved for neurological disorders. An estimated 72,120 new cases of primary brain tumors are expected to be diagnosed in 2012, that includes both malignant and non-malignant brain tumors. Basing on prevalence of diseases, Conference focuses on advances in neurological treatment.

The Central Nervous System has hundred billions of neurons which work by tolerating, engendering and transmitting electrochemical driving forces. Neurobiology manages useful human neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of cerebrum, spinal rope, white and dim issue, cerebrospinal liquid, synaptic and circuit elements.
