Meet USC: Admission Presentation, Campus Tour, & Engineering TalkMon, Sep 15, 2014
Viterbi School of Engineering Undergraduate Admission
Receptions & Special Events
This half day program is designed for prospective freshmen and family members. Meet USC includes an information session on the University and the Admission process; a student led walking tour of campus and a meeting with us in the Viterbi School. Meet USC is designed to answer all of your questions about USC, the application process and financial aid. Reservations are required for Meet USC. This program occurs twice, once at 8:30 a.m. and again at 12:30 p.m. Please visit http://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/firstyear/prospective/meetusc_sw.html to check availability and make an appointment. Be sure to list an Engineering major as your "intended major" on the webform!

Seminars in Engineering, Neuroscience & Health (ENH)
Mon, Sep 15, 2014 @ 03:50 PM - 04:50 PM
Alfred E. Mann Department of Biomedical Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Charles Y. Liu, M.D. Ph.D., Surgical Director of the Keck Medical Center of USC Comprehensive Epilepsy Program Director of Neurosurgery and Spine at Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center
Talk Title: Maximizing Unique Opportunities from Clinical Neurosciences for Human Nervous System Functional Restoration Research
Series: Seminars in Engineering, Neuroscience & Health (ENH)
Abstract: From the perspective of the clinical neurosciences, the treatment of nervous system disorders has largely been limited by the inability to restore lost neurological function, despite successful strategies to arrest or slow down the underlying processes. However, recent developments in the basic neurosciences and neural engineering are potentially expanding the horizons in this regard. The typical roadmap for translational application of basic discoveries to application to patients involves the progression from in-vitro experiments to animal models (including non-human primates) to human testing. In this sequence, the step from animal models to human work typically generates the most scrutiny, requires the most resources, and in many cases represents the barrier for ultimate benefit to patients. The USC Center for Neurorestoration has been established from the perspective of the clinical neurosciences to address this specific challenge. The vision is to create large scale clinical programs that run in parallel with collaborative research programs in engineering and neuroscience that take maximum advantage of opportunities for direct human recordings, or access to human neural tissue. The Center consists of an amalgam of clinical entities (USC Keck Hospital, LAC-USC Medical Center, and Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center) and research entities (USC Keck School of Medicine, Viterbi School of Engineering, and California Institute of Technology) as the core resources. It is designed to synergize with other Centers and Institutes at each of the partner entities, providing a unique voice from the perspective of the clinical neurosciences of neurosurgery and neurology.
