Event Details

We welcome you and appreciate your participation at the “13^th International Conference on Neurology and Brain Disorders”, which will be held during November 15-16, 2018 in Osaka, Japan and will be organized around the theme of “Current Novel Developments in Neuroscience and Neurology”

Neuro 2018 will be operated by world class experts in the field of neurology and Neuroscience, International symposiums, B2B meetings, workshops will also be organised to discuss the specific topics in the field of Neurology like Neuro Genesis, Neurophysiology, Neurological Disorders, Neuro Muscular Disorders, Neuro Infecticious Diseases, Neuropathology and Neuroplasticity. The conference is aimed in to identify the genetic determinants of common disorders to understand the mechanisms underlying human cognition. Neurogenetic Disorders are common among developed and developing countries. Genetic disorders and congenital abnormalities occur in around 2-5% of live births accounting for approximately 30% of pediatric hospital admissions in many places in the world. Neurogenetic conditions are generally chronic, long-term and incurable. In Netherlands approximately 10% of patients with neurological conditions have a single mutated gene as the basis for their disease. Furthermore, when polygenic inheritance is considered that is, the interplay between multiple genes and environment, a much larger proportion of neurological diseases are included. Dementia is strongly linked with age, and the Netherlands and other European countries have an increasingly ageing population. Currently 16% of the European population is over 65, with this figure expected to reach 25% by 2030. In the Netherlands it has been estimated that dementia alone costs the economy £17 billion a year.Student Poster Competition is organized at Conference, to encourage students and recent graduates to present their original research which will be later published in the Conference Series Journals. All accepted abstracts will be presented at the poster sessions during the conference. Conference Series provides an opportunity to present E-Poster for all the students who cannot attend the conference at 99$ with abstract published in the website with DOI number Live Streaming is a value added service offering to speaker at Conference Series Conference.

Business networking is an avenue for vendors to have network and B2B meetings with “Top scientists and colleagues” and with an effective low cost marketing method for developing sales and opportunities and contacts, based on referrals and introductions either face-to-face at meetings and gatherings, or by other contact methods such as Telephone, E mail, Digital and Increasingly social and business networking websites.

On behalf of Pulsus group, we take immense pleasure in inviting all the participants from all over the world to attend the Smart Materials conference entitled “4th International Conference on Innovative and Smart Materials” to be held in Osaka, Japan during November 19-20, 2018.

The conference will be organized around the theme “Appreciating Innovative Smart Materials for a Smart Future”

One among the major smart materials are shape memory alloys ( SMA )

Shape memory alloys (SMA) are materials that have the ability to return to a former shape when deformed, they return to their pre-deformed shape when heated this effect is known as shape memory effect and this brings the applications of smart materials in the medical field like cardiovascular applications where the filters can be inserted inside the human body which when the saline solution flow is stopped the filter returns in to its former shape and also the atrial hole is sealed with the help of atrial septal occlusion device which also works on the shape memory effect. In Orthopaedic applications SMA have a large value. The spinal vertebra spacer is one. The insertion of this spacer between two vertebrae assures the local reinforcement of the spinal vertebrae and SMA have their applications related to surgical instruments in the concept of less invasive surgical procedures follo
