Download the programme

Join us between September 22-23, 2022 at the prestigious Wellcome Collection in central London - a world-renowned venue exploring science, medicine, life, and art - for two days filled with some of the very best non-invasive brain stimulation and imaging research being carried out around the world. For the first time, researchers will also have the option to join us virtually to provide extra flexibility for travel considerations.

What will the conference cover?

This year, our programme will explore four distinct areas across the two days of talks, including:

  • Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) techniques;
  • Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES/tDCS/tACS/tRNS) techniques;
  • Transcranial-focused ultrasound stimulation (TUS/tFUS) techniques;
  • And neuroimaging and methodologies.

About the Brainbox Initiative Conference:

Since its inception in 2017, the international Brainbox Initiative Conference has sought to highlight and promote the groundbreaking work being carried out by early and mid-career neuroscientists at the forefront of non-invasive brain stimulation research. 

We offer our early-career speakers the opportunity to share their work, research, and insights on stage side-by-side with world-renowned keynote speakers whose distinguished careers have helped to shape the field, as well as providing a supportive, welcoming, and inclusive environment to develop new connections and explore exciting new avenues for research projects.

BBIConf2022 Dates

As well as a range of stimulating talks, the Brainbox Initiative Conference programme is supported by a range of interactive demonstrations and exhibitions of non-invasive brain stimulation techniques in action, allowing attendees to see some of the latest technologies up close and personal and gain expert technical insights into the development of exciting new systems.

Join us for our Satellite Workshop, only for in-person attendees:

The Brainbox Initiative Conference 2022 will also be followed by a half-day workshop on Saturday, September 24 where attendees will be allowed to join us for a special workshop led by Professor Kim Butts Pauly (Stanford University). The workshop will explore recent advancements in Ultrasound computational modelling, managing auditory confounds, MR-TUS compatibility, as well as future directions for the field.

Share your work:

We also encourage all interested attendees to submit their research to present a poster at our brain stimulation conference.

Each year, we invite our cohort of poster presenters to join us on stage at the conference to share their research with everyone in attendance at the event - all presenters have the opportunity to support their neuroscience research with a quickfire, three-minute live pitch to draw attention to the key takeaway messages of their research and spark interest in the conversations that take place in our evening poster hall gatherings. For 2022, the call for posters will remain open until September 1, 2022. Please bear in mind, however, that spaces are limited and call for posters may close early. We recommend interested delegates submit an abstract early to avoid disappointment.

Henry Hebron

Henry Hebron

University of Surrey

I am a PhD student in the NeMo and Surrey Sleep Research labs at the University of Surrey, supervised by Dr Ines Violante and Prof Derk-Jan Dijk.

My work explores the idea that the moment to moment fluctuations in brain activity may be leveraged to optimise neuromodulation. More specifically, I am employing closed-loop auditory stimulation – sounds administered according to the dynamics of the EEG in real time – to modulate and investigate specific oscillations and their role in various behaviours such as sleep and memory.

Previously, I completed an integrated master’s degree in Chemistry at the University of Reading, worked for 2 years as a synthetic organic chemist in drug discovery, and completed a master’s degree in Psychology at the University of Surrey.

In 2012, he was awarded a BBSRC David Phillips Fellowship and built his first lab combining non-invasive brain stimulation and virtual reality environments for studying cortical mechanisms underpinning the sensorimotor control of skilled hand movements. In 2019, he also co-founded a Digital Health and Smart Technologies research centre, sourcing UKRI World Class Laboratories funds at Brunel University London, where he holds an Honorary Readership.

Dr Davare’s current research interests sit at the interface between movement neurophysiology and cognitive neuroscience. Specifically, he investigates visuo-tactile sensory integration parameters used for movement guidance, which in turn inform perception of the surrounding environment. The general scope of his work is to provide a better understanding of the cortical biomarkers underlying skilled sensorimotor control in health and disease, and integrate these biomarkers into smart technology-driven neurorehabilitation of patients suffering from sensorimotor disorders.

Verena Sarrazin

Verena Sarrazin

University of Oxford

I am a DPhil student in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Oxford, supervised by Prof Jacinta O’Shea and Prof Michael Browning and funded by the MRC. The aim of my project is to develop new depression treatments using brain stimulation techniques. I combine transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), neuroimaging and computational modelling to investigate information processing in depression. Since depression is associated with a negative cognitive bias, I am trying to combine tDCS with reinforcement learning paradigms to increase attention towards positive information. In the second part of my project, I am investigating different cognitive phenotypes of depression.   

Prior to my DPhil I completed a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Social, Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience at Freie Universität Berlin.
