INS-IM 2020

International Neuromodulation Society-Interim Meeting (INS-IM) 2020 is organized by Medivision Events and will be held from Oct 23 - 25, 2020 at Grand Hyatt Mumbai Hotel & Residences, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.

Course Description:
India has been a leader in the field of Neuromodulation in Asia. The first DBS surgery was performed as early as 1998 and we now perform more than 550+ neuromodulation procedures in India (these are more than Australia) per year. The therapy has been growing, but is still underpenetrated, especially the field of neuromodulation in Pain. This meeting plans to address the need for neuromodulation in Pain by conducting several workshops, training programs and lectures.

The interim meeting is aimed to bring all the neuromodulators of Asia together to interact with the galaxy of speakers and delegates from Europe and USA. The Chinese, Korean and Japanese societies will be actively represented by their delegates and Presidents. We anticipate more than 600 delegates, including 150 faculties from Asia, Europe and USA.

The Neuromodulation society of India, is a unique blend of clinicians, in fairly even representation, from a variety of disciplines such as Neurosurgeons, Pain Physicians, Psychiatrists and Neurologists as its members. This meeting will not only focus on neuromodulation in Pain and Neurosurgery, but will involve neuromodulators from other specialty e.g. Neurology and Psychiatry, which are equally important in the success of the outcome of any given neuromodulation program.

There would be something for everyone in the scientific program and it can be tailored to each individual specialty, thereby increasing their involvement and participation.

We look forwards to welcome you to the exciting city of Mumbai, about which you have heard a lot, but may have a chance to experience personally.
