We are looking forward to hosting the International Conference on Technology and
AnaLysis of Seizures on the occasion of its 20th anniversary from <strong><span style="color:#1f3864">July 4 to 8 2022 in Bern, Switzerland.</span>

</strong>The 2022 edition of ICTALS, entitled “The tipping point” will inscribe itself into the long tradition of aiming at forecasting seizures.

<span style="font-size:12px"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica neue,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong><span style="color:#1f3864">Our tradition</span> </strong>- The ICTALS conference attracts scientists and clinicians around one common goal: use quantitative methods to analyze seizures and better understand and treat the disorder. The conference was born in the early 2000s as an International Workshop on Seizure Prediction, when it became clear that ready-to-use statistical solutions for forecasting physical phenomena such as earthquakes would fail at forecasting seizures in the epileptic brain. Since then, a total of nine conferences took place every other year, gathering between 150 and 200 neurologists, physicists, engineers, mathematicians and neuroscientists who all share an interest for quantitative methodology applied to the analysis of neurophysiological signals like EEG. Over the years, the community has increasingly recognized that a deeper understanding of epilepsy was a necessary first step for the engineering of practical solutions for forecasting. Today, the conference is a lively event, with a focus on open-minded debates between experts about hot scientific issues. At ICTALS there is not one single session without a flurry of questions that challenge the schedule. By training the next generation of scientists in epilepsy, ICTALS puts an emphasis on building a community of smart young minds that care about the devastating consequences of the disorder. We strive to harness all modern technology for the better care of people with epilepsy.</span></span></p>
