On the road to the Bend Venture Conference (BVC), October 16 and 17. Neurosom's mission is to address one of the greatest health issues of our time: dementia.

Every three seconds, someone in the world develops dementia. Current solutions fall short: medications sedate without restoring brain health, while consumer wearables only track sleep but don’t improve it.
Our Sleep WISP™ system is a simple, wearable headband that can be safely self-administered at home — but it does much more than track sleep. It monitors brain activity in real time using EEG.

Neurosom is an Early Growth Finalist in the Bend Venture Conference

As we approach the Bend Venture Conference on October 16 and 17, Neurosom™ is gearing up to share our mission to optimize sleep and reduce the risk of dementia. Our company was founded by neuroscientists who pioneered innovations in brain monitoring. Through studying the brain, scientists learned that deep sleep is essential for clearing toxic proteins from the brain through the glymphatic system, the brain’s waste removal pathway. When deep sleep is disrupted, glymphatic clearance fails, memory suffers, and neurodegeneration accelerates.

A new study published in Nature highlights the feasibility of predicting cognitive decline with a one-channel EEG device and AI.

Scientists studied EEG patterns in elderly subjects and, with the assistance of AI, found a correlation between irregular EEG activity and mild cognitive impairment. The future utility of EEG in the detection of neurodegenerative illness opens an area of keen interest, as current diagnostic methods often do not detect MCI until it has progressed to dementia.
