The Heart-Brain connection and interaction is a relatively unexplored science that is gaining interest among researchers from multiple disciplines. The purpose of the Summit is to bring this relationship to the forefront in order to stimulate and advance research and patient treatments in this important field of medicine.
Health care professionals will learn of recent discoveries and insight that relate to new treatments for cardiovascular and nervous system disorders. Importantly, cardiovascular, neurological and psychiatric conditions will be looked at in a different context.
