In the last decade Brain-computer interface (BCI) became a hot research topic in neurosciences. Now more than ever this technology is going mainstream. Devices that includes electroencephalography (EEG) and brain waves monitors are use in research, health care, fitness and gaming pushing back the limit of possibilities. BCI Montreal and Hacking Health proudly present to you outstanding researchers and start-ups that innovate every day to increase healthcare using this science-fiction technology. How it works, what is possible, is there any safety issue? Come to Your brain as an input cafe to get all the answers!

Speakers
Karim Jerbi, Assistant professor at the Psychology Department of the University of Montreal.
Karim Jerbi will give us a good understanding of what is happening in the field of brain-computer interfaces. Where it started, where we are and where we’re headed
Tiago H. Falk, Professor at the Institut national de la recherche scientifique
Professor Falk will bring us in his world and show us how brain-computer interfaces could disrupt multiple domains in the coming years. From human-machine interaction to marketing to gaming, our brains might just be the next big revolution.
Jean-Philip Poulin, Sensaura
Real-time emotion recognition
Dr Vincent Paquette, M.Sc., Ph.D., Neuropsychologist and Owner at Institut PsychoNeuro
Dr. Paquette will show us the clinical use of Neurofeedback, mainly with ADHD, Anxiety and Major depression patients. Thie technique he named PsychoNeuroTherapy use the retroaction of the brain electrical activity recorded via EEG electrodes to help patients modulates the patterns of abnormal activity in the brain.
