*Foresight Neurotech program & apply to join:* https://foresight.org/neurotech-improving-cognition-program/
A group of neuroscience researchers, entrepreneurs, and allies advancing beneficial short-term and long-term neurotechnology applications.
*Jacob Robinson, Rice University*
*Treating brain disorders at their source - Minimally invasive neurotech for mental health*
Jacob Robinson, CEO of Motif, is an Associate Professor in Electrical & Computer Engineering and Bioengineering at Rice University and an Adjunct Associate Professor in Neuroscience at Baylor College of Medicine. His research group uses nanofabrication technology to create devices that can manipulate and monitor neural circuit activity. His current research interests include nanoelectronic, nanophotonic and nanomagnetic technologies to manipulate and measure brain activity. Dr. Robinson's work has been recognized by several agencies including the DARPA Young Faculty Award and the John S. Dunn Foundation Collaborative Research Award.

Serious mental illness strikes one in ten Americans and about a third of those do not adequately respond to drug therapies. In this talk, I will describe how Motif Neurotech is building the first minimally invasive brain pacemaker to help people who suffer from mental health disorders get well and stay well with smarter, more personalized therapies based on their own brain data.
*The Foresight Institute* is a research organization and non-profit that supports the beneficial development of high-impact technologies. Since our founding in 1986 on a vision of guiding powerful technologies, we have continued to evolve into a many-armed organization that focuses on several fields of science and technology that are too ambitious for legacy institutions to support. From molecular nanotechnology, to brain-computer interfaces, space exploration, cryptocommerce, and AI, Foresight gathers leading minds to advance research and accelerate progress toward flourishing futures.
