About

A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine organized and conducted a one-day public workshop that brought together experts and key partners from academia, industry, government, philanthropic foundations, disease-focused non-profit organizations and individuals with lived experience to examine the role of implantable brain stimulation to treat central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The workshop explored barriers to adopting implantable brain stimulation into the standard of care across CNS disorders; and potential strategies and collaborations to develop sustainable and scalable utility in the future.

Invited presentations and discussions included:

Reviewed the current state of knowledge regarding the clinical utilization of implantable brain stimulation across various CNS disorders and considered the future potential to improve quality of life for patients.
Explored barriers and potential solutions to adopting implantable brain stimulation into standard of care such as: safety and efficacy, scalability, and regulatory support.
Discussed the ethical and equity implications associated with reimbursement practices, accessibility, and technological distribution.
Examined opportunities to enhance health professional and patient education to ensure informed access to implantable brain stimulation.

The planning committee developed the agenda for the workshop, selected and invited speakers and discussants, and moderated the discussions. A proceedings of the presentations and discussions at the workshop was prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
