Who are you?
A neurologist, otolaryngologist, psychiatrist, or frontline practitioner treating CNS disorders.

Why do we need another CNS conference?
We have an enormous aging population and a lack of educational platforms that address the importance of collaborative care among specialists and frontline practitioners treating neuropsychiatric disorders.

A more elegant Las Vegas experience
Enjoy the contrast of the Red Rock landscape to the sensory experience of the Las Vegas strip. If you decide you need a bit more vitality, you can be downtown in a matter of minutes. You can have the best of both worlds!

What is BRAINWeek?
Developed by the PAINWeek organization—now in its 16th year of exceptional pain management education—BRAINWeek provides live and digital activities addressing the most frequently diagnosed conditions encountered in clinical practice, with an emphasis on collaborative care among specialists and frontline practitioners. The 2022 conference agenda will include courses on the impact of COVID-19, bipolar depression, dementia, epilepsy, hearing loss, migraine, multiple sclerosis, sleep, and stroke, as well as special interest sessions on rare CNS disorders such as Dravet syndrome, Rhett syndrome, and spinal muscular atrophy.

The current estimated annual cost to American society of just nine of the most common neurological diseases is staggering, totaling $789 billion. These conditions include Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, low back pain, stroke, traumatic brain injury, migraine, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and Parkinson’s disease.
