0844_CPMC_Non-Invasive Neuromodulation for Neurological and Psychiatric Disorders_Live

January 22, 2026

Description: 

This virtual grand rounds addresses a critical knowledge gap among clinicians regarding non-invasive neuromodulation therapies for treatment-resistant psychiatric and neurological conditions. The session will equip participants to identify current FDA-approved neuromodulation options for psychiatric disorders and emerging therapies for acute seizures and drug-resistant epilepsy. Attendees will explore the underlying mechanisms of action for these innovative treatment modalities and learn to recognize key factors that influence both efficacy and tolerability outcomes, enabling more informed clinical decision-making for patients with medically refractory mood disorders and seizures.
