Since 2000, the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB) has partnered with the Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute at Galveston to support an invitation only conference that assembles researchers, practitioners, policymakers and consumer advocates to encourage research to advance care.

Conference leaders and participants chose specific topics to direct the meeting's focus and deliberations. Following these meetings, participants produce and disseminate a variety of products, including journal articles, presentations, reports, action plans, guidelines, handouts, and other findings and publications.
