What was the event?
The 26th WPA World Congress of Psychiatry took place in Stockholm, Sweden, on 23–26 September 2026. The World Psychiatric Association organized it with the Swedish Psychiatric Association.
What was presented?
A Clarity Science press release dated 9 October 2026 reports a presentation by Peter Hurwitz on haptic technology. It describes four randomized, placebo-controlled trials with 319 participants in total, covering sleep, pain, balance and athletic performance. These statements come from the research company's release.
How should it be interpreted?
A congress presentation is a scientific contribution, not WPA endorsement or approval. Individual findings should be assessed through the original studies. The congress announcement and the published RESTORE study are therefore presented separately here.
