Advances in neurotechnology and rehabilitation engineering are redefining what is possible for people with neurological injuries and disorders. Breakthroughs across research, clinical translation, and industry now offer new opportunities to restore sensory, cognitive, and motor functions once thought irreversibly lost. This session will examine how cutting-edge neurotechnologies can move from the lab to scalable, accessible solutions worldwide, while also integrating the ethical, societal, and regulatory considerations essential for responsible global deployment.
