What they do

Problem

Neuroscience and neurotechnology lack a unified, controllable way to model and interpret the brain’s neural “syntax” for understanding and intervention.

Solution

Who it's for

Neuroscience and neurotechnology researchers and developers building brain-computer interfaces or brain modeling tools.
