Moderator: Amy M. Moore MD
Panelists: Ming Chan, MD; Christine A. Webber, PhD; Paul S. Cederna, MD
Outcomes in nerve surgery continue to be limited by suboptimal nerve regeneration. Scientific advances in our understanding of peripheral nerve regeneration are critical to optimize patient outcomes. Yet, it can be challenging for the clinical surgeon to keep up with the multiple avenues of research in this field. This expert panel will highlight the key scientific innovations that can enhance peripheral nerve regeneration in your practice today, as well as those that have the most potential for the future.
Objectives: Following this session, the participant will be able to:

The Opportunity and the Obligation to Innovate
Scott Parazynski, MD
Dr. Scott Parazynski is a highly decorated physician, astronaut, and tech CEO, recently inducted into the US Astronaut Hall of Fame. Dr. Parazynski has lived and traveled all over the world, spending many of his grade school years in places such as Senegal, Lebanon, Iran and Greece. A graduate of Stanford University and Medical School, he went on to train at Harvard and in Denver for a career in emergency medicine and trauma. We look forward to having Dr. Parazynski share his experiences in extraordinary environments and how opportunities to make things better are all around us, and that we need to continuously ask ourselves is there a better/faster/safer/cheaper/less painful way to do things in the future?

Current Advances In Restoring Intrinsic Function Of The Hand
Chair: Christopher Dy, MD
Instructors: Heather L. Baltzer, MD; Christopher Doherty, MD; Thomas HH Tung, MD
The intrinsic muscles are critical to hand function yet are also some of the most challenging to reconstruct following nerve injury or direct trauma. Recent advances in peripheral nerve and microsurgical techniques have expanded the options for reinnervating or reconstructing the intrinsics. This panel will share current advances in the reconstruction of median- and ulnar-innervated intrinsic functions of the hand.

Nerve Reconstruction In The Lower Limb: What Works And What Doesn't?
Chair: Grant M. Kleiber, MD
Instructors: Amy M. Moore, MD; Kyle R. Eberlin MD; Douglas Ross, MD
There are many challenges to nerve reconstruction in the lower limb that have limited patient outcomes relative to upper limb nerve reconstruction. This panel will discuss recent advances in surgical techniques and in our understanding of anatomy and outcomes in lower limb nerve surgery to better guide clinical management of these patients
Objectives: Following this session, the participant will be able to:

This panel will discuss recent advances in surgical techniques and in our understanding of anatomy and outcomes in lower limb nerve surgery to better guide clinical management of these patients
Objectives: Following this session, the participant will be able to:
- Discuss the management of lower limb nerve transfers, including patient selection, timing of intervention and key differences from upper limb nerve surgery.
- Learn about new nerve transfers in the lower limb.

Current Concepts in Rehabilitation after Nerve Transfers
Chairs: Thomas HH Tung, MD
Instructors: Amy Young, MD; Alexandrea Mackenzie, CHT
Rehabilitation following nerve transfers is critically important to the success of these procedures, and should nerve be underestimated. New approaches include EMG biofeedback, app-based home programs, and a focus on preoperative patient preparation to enhance cortical plasticity. This course will review current concepts in rehabilitation to optimize patient outcomes following nerve transfers.
