Our world is changing and changing quickly. One can be certain that the impact of technology will only become more pervasive in the decades to come and we cannot ignore how it will impact our profession. The juggernaut of technological development has and will continue to dramatically alter how we as health professionals in the neurosciences pursue our efforts in research, training and treatment. This book provides a rare and needed analysis of the history of technology in our field, the current state-of-the-art as well as a vision for the future. The contributors of this book critically examine how recent technological developments can contribute to advances in a range of topics including educational technology, assessment and treatment. These advances include a wide range of new approaches to communication and extend to advances in clinical care such as Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Transcranial Magnetic and Deep-brain stimulation.
