The NIH Common Fund’s Stimulating Peripheral Activity to Relieve Conditions (SPARC) program supports a broad range of research projects, ranging from identification of neural targets to device development and clinical discovery—all in support of SPARC’s goal of advancing bioelectronic medicine through precise control of the autonomic nervous system.

In celebration of SPARC’s efforts to bridge the divide between anatomists/physiologists, device developers and computational modelers to advance bioelectronic medicine, we wanted to ignite your imagination and creativity! Applicants could enter the SPARC Art contest by sending in their most striking original image or video from their research to have a chance to win the opportunity to be featured in the International Society for Autonomic Neuroscience (ISAN) journal Autonomic Neuroscience: Basic & Clinical and in our monthly SPARC Plug!
