On 26th February 2026, BNA hosted Introduction to Neurophysiology Webinar, designed to make the complex field of neurophysiology more accessible for students and early-career practitioners. The session covered the fundamentals of neurophysiology in both the brain and spinal cord, aimed at anyone interested in understanding how neurones and glial cells communicate.
The webinar provided an overview of key neurophysiological principles and demonstrated how these concepts apply to various brain diseases. Participants were supported in using neurophysiological knowledge to better understand how changes in brain physiology can lead to disease.
You can now access the recording of the webinar.
