Neurovascular coupling explores the complex relationship between neuronal activity and changes in cerebral blood flow, ensuring that the brain receives adequate oxygen and nutrients to meet its metabolic demands. This scientific session focuses on the mechanisms regulating communication between neurons, glial cells, and cerebral blood vessels, along with advances in brain perfusion, vascular regulation, and neurovascular signaling. Topics include the role of neurovascular coupling in neurological disorders, cerebrovascular dysfunction, blood–brain barrier integrity, functional brain imaging, and emerging diagnostic techniques. The session also highlights recent research into impaired neurovascular responses and their implications for brain health, disease progression, and therapeutic development. Researchers, neurologists, neuroscientists, and clinical professionals are invited to share their findings and discuss innovative approaches to understanding and improving neurovascular function.
