HANDS-ON SESSIONS
Day 3 - December 3, 2022, 2.00 pm to 6.30 pm: Hands-on Session 1
Day 4 - December 4, 2022, 8.30 am to 1.30 pm: Hands-on Session 2
Venue: National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) @ TTSH Campus
- Only applicable to Group A participants (please refer registration information)
- Limited number of slots are available
- Priority will be given to overseas participants
Each Hands-on Session will have multiple stations. These stations will be on various topics of Nerve Conduction Study (NCS), Electromyography(EMG), Neuromuscular Ultrasound, Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Evoked Potentials. Participants will be asked to choose a certain number out of the total number of stations (to be determined later).
