This non-invasive brain stimulation technology is being studied to see if it can improve the symptoms associated with Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Traumatic Stress. The lecture will update the audience on the current studies being conducted at USSOCOM utilizing this neuromodulation therapy. 1615-1645 The Role of Specialized Resolving Mediators in Sport Related Health Conditions David LeMay, MD Inflammation is a normal process of tissue repair that is supposed to be a time limited process. Sports related activity creates a pro-inflammatory state. This lecture introduces the concept of pro-resolution mediators and their role in shifting a normal inflammatory response to a resolution phase. 1645-1715 Therapeutic Reprograming of Tissue within the Live Body Chandan K. Sen, PhD The notion of stem cell is interesting because these cells may generate other cell types of interest for therapeutic purposes. More recent work show that we may not need stem cells, adult cells can be reprogrammed too. Currently, such reprogramming happens in the laboratory and requires many laboratory procedures, several of them require expertise and are difficult to reproduce. Such reprogrammed cells are then introduced to the body for therapeutic purposes. Dr. Sen's team has introduced a technology called Tissue Nanotransfection (please Google) that can reprogram tissues within the live body. The procedure is simple lasting less than a second. Applications of this technology in trauma care will be discussed. Track 4: Global Health Engagement and Medical Support Operations for Unconventional Warfare
