“This is not the be all end all. This is not the most important thing in my life…I would much rather be a great father than a great golfer.”

What a masterclass in the nuance of mastery and elite performance.

This is winning the inside game. A must listen.

We've launched the Armamentarium, a new toolkit for targeted gene delivery to the brain and spinal cord.

This #OpenScience resource was made possible thanks to support from the @NIH BRAIN Initiative and teamwork with our collaborators.

What is consciousness? 🧠 ✨

A landmark 7-year study suggests it may be related to sensory processing and perception. The findings could impact how we think about measuring #consciousness and diagnosing comas or vegetative states. https://t.co/0OYrl8MfDH

Just finished The Explorer's Gene by Alex Hutchinson, aka @sweatscience. So many revelations on different levels for me as Alex eloquently traverses history, neuroscience, and psychology to ponder why we explore not only our world but our everyday choices. Excellent read! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Today at #GTC25, we unveiled our roadmap to launching Chiral™, the world’s first Cognitive AI Brain Foundation Model—paving the way for a future where AI is trained directly on human neural activity. 🧠

The first step in this journey is our collaboration with @nvidia, which we’re honored to be showcasing at GTC. By pairing the Synchron BCI with NVIDIA Holoscan and the @Apple Vision Pro with its assistive features, we’re demonstrating how our BCI can empower people with new kinds of independence—enabling them to control their world using only their thoughts.

This is just the beginning. The future of BCI is unfolding, and we’re excited for what’s ahead.

Now and always, we remain in awe of and grateful to our users like Rodney, for their pioneering work in bringing this technology to life.
