Neuromodulation Seminar Series

The UCLA Neuromodulation Division regularly invites experts in the field of invasive or non-invasive Neuromodulation to discuss their work in the Neuromodulation Seminar Series. We are pleased to welcome speakers from UCLA and nationwide institutions. Speakers are scheduled approximately once a month and take place instead of Journal Club on Tuesdays at 4 PM. During COVID-19, these events are being hosted virtually through Zoom.
