“The treasurer, bookkeeper and executive director review the form 990 independently and provide their comments, if any, to the accountant preparing the form.”

“Ins has a conflicts policy in place, but no conflicts have arisen as of yet.”

“The annual process for determining compensation is as follows: the ins executive board shall annually evaluate the executive director, public education manager, and editorial assistant on his/her performance, and ask for his/her input on matters of performance and compensation. The executive board will obtain research and information to inform their decision on the compensation (salary and benefits) based on a review of comparability data”

“The governing documents (bylaws) and coi policy are posted on the website. The financial statements are available upon request.”

“Most significant activities the ins hosts monthly webinars featuring renowned experts for medical professionals to learn the latest neuromodulation research, therapies & best practices to improve patient selection, access & care. In line with its educational mission, the ins, with its young neuromodulator and international women in neuromodulation committees, hosts the virtual journal club to offer an objective, non-commercial platform for discussing timely studies of neuromodulation techniques and clinical practice. Many articles come from neuromodulation: technology at the neural interface, the official journal of the ins. Cme credit is available to members who participate in the live event. Each club session is recorded and made available on the ins members' website for later viewing. Complete mission statement of international neuromodulation society: the mission of the ins is to promote and disseminate the science, education, practice and accessibility of all aspects of neuromodulation. This multidisciplinary society believes that all scientists, doctors, bioengineers, professions allied to medicine and industry partners who have a specialist interest in neuromodulation can work with this society to share science and encourage best practice for the good of humanity. The vision of the ins is to harness all scientific, clinical and engineering endeavor throughout the world and to brand neuromodulation to encompass all neurological technologies that through electrical or chemical means improve the function of the impaired individual. The goals of the ins are: to create a forum for clinicians, basic scientists and bioengineers involved with neuromodulation through a combination of scientific meetings, journal and interactive website; to create a family of affiliated neuromodulation national chapters to encourage growth and influence at national level; to encourage research and development into the conditions treated and the devices and techniques used; to encourage open dialogue with industry partners and health care authorities to improve understanding of these therapies, the needs of patients, service requirements and fair remuneration; to expand the worldwide access to neuromodulation by raising awareness of the both its clinical efficacy and cost effectiveness. Program service accomplishment statement1, continued: for clinicians, engineers, scientists and members of the biotechnology industry alike, neuromodulation provides timely and rigorously peer reviewed articles on the technology, science and clinical application of devices that interface with the nervous system to treat disease and improve function. Neuromodulation covers an ever expanding field including pain, headache,movement disorders, spasticity, paralysis, psychiatric disorders, cognitive disorders, epilepsy, sensory deprivation, gastric dysfunction, obesity, incontinence and systemic disease. The journal represents the practice of a growing, diverse multidisciplinary field responsible for the development and application of devices and techniques to benefit patients by normalizing function and reducing suffering. In depth reviews, original articles, national and international meeting abstracts, special focus editions and web based educational offerings help the reader to expand their knowledge and understanding of the interface between electrical stimulation, chemical neuromodulation, the nervous system and the patient. Our updates on past and future news of events and activities of the ins and its membership keep the reader abreast of issues related to professional education and development. Program service accomplishment statement3, continued: therefore, this conference will appeal to and educate the diverse population of anticipated attendees (neurosurgeons, neurologists, anesthesiologists, physiatrists, cardiologists, urologists, basic scientists, biomedical engineers, and industry representatives) from around the globe and provide a unique forum for disc”
