Santa Fe, New Mexico Patent of the Year – 2024/2025
NeuroGeneces Inc. has been awarded the 2024/2025 Patent of the Year for its groundbreaking innovation in at-home brain health monitoring.. Their invention, detailed in U.S. Patent No. 12053288, titled ‘Sensing system with features for determining and predicting brain age and other electrophysiological metrics of a subject’, introduces a wearable headband that utilizes EEG sensors and machine learning algorithms to assess brain age and cognitive health during sleep.
This technology enables users to monitor their brain’s functional age from the comfort of their homes, eliminating the need for expensive and invasive procedures like MRI scans or lab-based sleep studies. By analyzing sleep-related brain activity, the system provides insights into cognitive health, potentially identifying early signs of decline before symptoms manifest.
The headband not only tracks brain metrics but also delivers auditory stimulation synchronized with the user’s natural slow-wave sleep patterns. This feature aims to enhance memory consolidation and overall sleep quality, offering a proactive approach to cognitive wellness.
NeuroGeneces’ innovation represents a significant advancement in personalized healthcare, making brain health monitoring more accessible and user-friendly. As the global population ages, such technologies are poised to play a crucial role in early detection and intervention strategies for cognitive decline.
By integrating advanced neuroscience with practical design, NeuroGeneces is setting a new standard for non-invasive brain health assessment, empowering individuals to take charge of their cognitive well-being.
