REWIRING HOPE:

THE NEUROPLASTICITY
SUMMIT 2026

MARCH 16 -19, 2026

DON’T TAKE “NO” FOR AN ANSWER:
YOUR PATH TO RECOVERY STARTS HERE

Welcome to the Rewiring Hope: The Neuroplasticity Summit 2026

For centuries, neurological challenges were viewed as permanent. Today, we know better.

We are witnessing a revolution in care that leverages the inherent power of the human brain and nervous system to transform "permanent" dysfunction into recoverable potential. But science now shows a different reality.

Neuroplasticity—the brain’s documented ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections—is one of the most significant breakthroughs in modern medicine. It is allowing us to create advanced care programs allowing us to do for the brain what has been done for the heart.

At the Rewiring Hope Summit, we show you how to leverage the power of the brain and nervous system to adapt, even years after an initial injury.

Evidence-Based Hope for Every Challenge

This free, 4-day virtual summit shares real-life success stories from the impacted individuals, treating physicians and technology providers. Learn from the world’s leading experts on:

Treating chronic pain without medication
Reversing cognitive decline caused by brain injury or Alzheimer’s
Regaining emotional balance caused by anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction
Recovering mobility after stroke

Join the Paradigm Change

Neurologic dysfunction is the leading cause of disability in the U.S., but it no longer has to be a life sentence. The shift from "managing symptoms" to "rewiring systems" has arrived.

Stop waiting for the future. It’s already here.

HEAR CLARK ELLIOTT’S TESTIMONIAL ON THE POWER OF BRAIN PLASTICITY

After a 1999 car accident, DePaul AI Professor Clark Elliott spent eight years suffering from severe cognitive impairments that doctors deemed untreatable. Through innovative neuroplasticity-based therapies, he achieved a miraculous recovery and returned to his professional life better than he was before the accident. He meticulously details this transformative journey in his #1 New York Times bestseller, The Ghost in My Brain: How a Concussion Stole My Life and How the Science of Brain Plasticity Helped Me Get It Back.

AGENDA

Rewiring Hope: The Neuroplasticity Summit 2026 is a four-day virtual experience designed to explore how neuroplasticity is transforming brain and nervous system health.

Each day focuses on specific neurological challenges and is explored through lived experience, technology innovation, clinical application, and applied neuroplasticity, creating a comprehensive and actionable learning experience.

DAY 1, MARCH 16TH

RESTORING COGNITIVE FUNCTION ASSOCIATED WITH ALZHEIMER’S AND BRIAN INJURY

This day centers on enhancing cognitive health and memory after a traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis. Sessions will explore the Bredesen Protocol’s new research demonstrating reversal of Alzheimer’s as well as brain training and lifestyle habit’s that help ensure a healthy, resilient and mentally sharp brain throughout life.

DAY 2, MARCH 17TH

RECLAIMING MOBILITY AND SPEECH AFTER STROKE

Day Two dives into the mechanics of stroke recovery. We will cover essential pillars of rehabilitation—including motor function, speech, and cognition—alongside nervous system regulation. The session also highlights cutting-edge neurotechnology, such as Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS), and other advanced tools currently accelerating patient outcomes.

DAY 3, MARCH 18TH

ELIMINATING CHRONIC PAIN

This day explores the reversal of learned neural pathways to reduce and eliminate chronic pain. Sessions will highlight how neuroplasticity-based approaches, immersive technologies, and multi-modal interventions empower individuals to retrain their pain responses—restoring physical mobility and significantly reducing reliance on long-term medications.

DAY 4, MARCH 19TH

REGAINING MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH

The final day focuses on emotional regulation and mental health, including addiction, anxiety and depression. Discussions will examine how neuroplasticity supports emotional balance through nervous system regulation, specifically highlighting the roles of somatic movement and amygdala retraining in rewiring the stress response. We will explore innovative therapies and emerging treatments—such as ketamine-assisted approaches—alongside complementary strategies that promote resilience and long-term mental well-being.

LEARNING PILLARS

Each day features four expert perspectives, offering a balanced and integrated view of neuroplasticity in action:

Lived Experience

Gain inspiration and practical insight from individuals sharing personal journeys of recovery supported by neuroplasticity-based interventions and practices.

Technology Innovation

Discover emerging technologies that advance brain and central nervous system restoration, expanding awareness of innovative tools supporting neurological health and recovery

Clinical Tech Expert

Learn from experienced clinicians who share real-world success applying science-backed technologies in the treatment of diverse neurological conditions.

Applied Neuroplasticity

Explore hands-on, non-technological approaches used by practitioners to target each day’s focus area, offering adaptable techniques for everyday and clinical application.

IF YOU’RE AN INDIVIDUAL NAVIGATING A NEUROLOGICAL CONDITION…

A New Narrative for Recovery

The discovery of neuroplasticity allows us to move beyond the language of limitation.

You may have been told:

"You’ve reached a plateau." (Actually, neuroplasticity is a lifelong capability.)

"Just manage the symptoms."

(Why manage when you can fundamentally rewire?)

"This is your new normal." (Your "normal" is still being written by your brain's incredible ability to adapt.)

IF YOU’RE A CLINICIAN OR PRACTITIONER FEELING LIMITED BY TRADITIONAL MODELS…

Expand Your Clinical Mastery

This summit is your opportunity to step into the role of a neuroplasticity advocate. You will move from understanding the theory of brain change to mastering its real-world application.

Access a New "Tool Chest":

Gain direct exposure to the emerging tools that are defining 2026, including AI-driven rehabilitation, targeted neurostimulation, and advanced VR therapeutics.

Learn from Fellow Innovators: Connect with clinicians and researchers who are successfully integrating these tools to achieve 40-70% higher recovery rates than traditional methods.

Evolve Your Practice:

Transition your clinical framework from what you learned in training to a model built on the cutting edge of neurobiology and technology.

Lead the Narrative:

Position yourself as a forward-thinking provider who offers patients more than just "coping strategies"—you offer a roadmap for restoration.

THE POWER OF SELF-ADVOCACY:

Understanding the tools available to you is your greatest strength. You are the CEO of your own recovery. Explore the cutting-edge interventions that give you the controls. From personalized brain training systems that adapt to your progress and non-invasive neurostimulation that wakes up dormant pathways, neuroplasticity-'based interventions allow you to move from "management" to mastery.

LEARN PRACTICAL STRATEGIES:

We will cover practical strategies for restoring memory, boosting cognition, and reducing persistent pain without heavy medication. Learn how to address depression and anxiety using breakthrough approaches that empower you to take back your life.
