Precision Neuroscience

Concept

Precision Neuroscience sets out to make brain-computer interfaces clinically routine, not science fiction. Its flagship Layer 7 Cortical Interface is a paper-thin array micron-scale electrodes that slide through a 1 mm cranial slit and rest on the cortex without piercing tissue. The goal is immediate: help people with paralysis text, email and speak by thought alone; the horizon is broader map cognition, treat stroke, connect prosthetics.

Technology & Design

• 1 um Resolution – the world’s densest surface-level neural readout shows neuron clusters like pixels on a Retina screen.
• Minimally Invasive – no craniotomy; surgeons “insert & unroll” the array in < 30 min, designed for easy removal or upgrade.
• Sub-Skull Hub – a wafer-thin processor sits between skull and scalp, encrypting signals before beaming them to tablets.
• Scalable Channels – thousands today, tens of thousands tomorrow built on flexible polyimide that moves with the brain.

UX & Ethics

Trials run with leading U.S. hospitals; early participants control on-screen keyboards at words-per-minute speeds once unthinkable. Every design choice materials, on-device encryption, reversible surgery answers the question “Would you put this in someone you love?” An independent ethics board oversees data handling and patient consent.

Takeaway

Precision Neuroscience proves BCI can leave the lab and enter the operating room: surgical practicality, Retina-grade resolution and a focus on real-world independence signal a leap toward mainstream neuro-prosthetics and a future where thought is a universal input.
