The National Science Foundation (NSF) in collaboration with the National 
Institutes of Health (NIH) is pleased to announce the first Disability and 
Rehabilitation Engineering (DARE) Conference on Transformative Opportunities 
for Modeling in Neurorehabilitation scheduled on 3-4 March 2023. This will be a 
hybrid event to be held at the University of Southern California. This 
conference will bring together leading engineers, clinicians, computational 
scientists, rehabilitation researchers, trainees, and client advocates to 
discuss the state of the science and identify transformative opportunities for 
computational modeling to advance neurorehabilitation.

Hosted by the University of Southern California and the University of 
Washington, this conference has been designed to critically discuss two 
questions:

     1. What can computational modeling do for neurorehabilitation?
     2. How can computational modeling improve neurorehabilitation?

How can you participate?

Scientific contribution:
Submit a brief abstract (to be considered for both oral and poster sessions)-

  Due Date January 15th.
Since attendance at the workshop is limited, individuals selected for a 
10-minute podium or poster presentation will be given priority for registration.

Apply to be a DARE2023 Fellow. Application period: 12/20/2022-1/15/2023.
A main goal of the conference is to catalyze a diverse community of Fellows 
that come together to address the two key questions above. They will receive 
travel assistance and be invited to co-write a Position Paper. Please see 
instructions here

Want to learn more?

This conference will bring together experts and trainees from around the world 
to discuss critical questions, challenges, and opportunities at the 
intersection of computational modeling and neurorehabilitation. Our mission is 
to identify the gaps and opportunities for using computational modeling and 
device design to understand, optimize, and improve neurorehabilitation. This 
conference will focus on four areas of impact, as described in 
https://dare2023.usc.edu/<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.com%2Fv3%2F__https%3A%2F%2Fdare2023.usc.edu%2F__%3B!!Dq0X2DkFhyF93HkjWTBQKhk!Q3h5hComdy71KaX2bVXCt-gbzVSoBzEPnpzQYQfFZhjeQwodInTx268lklglXmeJOk7pSOsanVL0bL5W3lVInR-vRMmvbOmWXrcvDkXplpLPO7qqPMIXSiE%24&data=05%7C01%7Cpenggr%40mail.nih.gov%7C6ce14bcf55a34dd8f35f08dae2038e41%7C14b77578977342d58507251ca2dc2b06%7C0%7C0%7C638070802157048664%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=l4ZwagBWSEHacd493seOLxXqLwL7hxcY6IXrqwTyY4g%3D&reserved=0>:

1. Modeling adaptation and plasticity: How do we leverage modeling to 
understand neuroplasticity? How can the integration of novel imaging 
technologies, machine learning, and physiology-based models be used to predict 
and understand the complex processes underlying beneficial neuroplasticity and 
adaptation that support learning and recovery?

2. Modeling for personalization: A central challenge in rehabilitation is that 
each individual's developmental, injury, treatment response, and long-term 
recovery trajectory is unique. However, it is necessary to first determine the 
degree of personalization required to optimize and support development and 
recovery in practice. How can we leverage large, diverse, and real-time 
datasets to support an appropriate and effective level of personalization to 
optimize outcomes?

3. Modeling human-device interactions: Interconnected human-centered technology 
has become a critical part of function and rehabilitation - including 
development, acute care, training, and activities of daily living. However, 
neurorehabilitation requires new engineering approaches to support the design, 
interaction, integration, and control of devices to support development and 
recovery. How can modeling inform and accelerate this development?

4. Modeling in the wild: Rehabilitation does not end at the clinic's door - it 
extends into and is meant to serve our daily lives and practices. How can 
modeling support rehabilitation in unstructured human environments to offer 
actionable insights to support and promote recovery? How can modeling identify 
and dismantle environmental and societal barriers that cause disability to 
support and enhance activities of daily living?

This conference is sponsored by NSF Directorate for Engineering (ENG):  the
