The annual International Conference for Advanced Neurotechnology (ICAN) brings together engineers and neuroscientists to review recent technological advancements in neurotechnology and neuroscience and to define the direction of the field in the generation and application of next-generation tools to advance neuroscience and enhance translation of technology to the science community.

Significant advances have occurred to address the problem of scaling neuroscience investigative tools to interface with neuronal circuits and in defining the properties of elemental cell types that comprise these circuits. Yet, these advances have not fully met the complexity, or fully addressed the cellular and network features of the CNS required to accelerate our understanding of the brain.
