Read if you are a brainiac or want to be
Reflecting on the smartest Near Future Summit of all time, I just can't stop replaying the magic revealed, and since it is Brain Awareness Month, we are sharing a few of the solutions that are designed to nurture our headiest organ.
HIGHLIGHTS FROM NFS 2025
SMELLS LIKE DREAM SPIRIT
Leading neuroscientist Dr. Michael Leon and his team at Memory Air developed an olfactory enrichment device that works while you sleep. Shown to improve memory loss by 226% in adults ages 60-85 and a 300% memory improvement in patients with dementia, anyone with family members affected by Alzheimer's will want one.
THE SWISS ARMY KNIFE OF BRAIN DEVICES
Humanity Neurotech has developed a non-invasive device that delivers magnetic fields to the whole brain to reduce inflammation and improve mitochondrial function. Highly relevant for Long Covid, brain aging, neurological diseases, and mental health. They are running a first in human clinical trial at Mt. Sinai Hospital focused on cognitive impairment.
HIVE MIND
After a close encounter with a city bike, a taxi and the pavement, Ken Hertz knew there had to be a solution to make city bikes and scooters as safe as they are convenient. After many years of researching and developing prototypes, the Hive helmet promises to provide a travel-friendly, cost-efficient, readily available helmet. You'll be the first to know about it when it becomes available. Email Liz for additional information.
