Navigating Neurology: Challenges and Innovations

What if your brain could control augmented reality with just a thought? Imagine assistive devices empowering millions with ALS, stroke, or paralysis to communicate and interact like never before. Welcome to the Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible! podcast featuring visionary innovator Andreas Forsland, Founder and CEO of Cognixion. 

A year ago, Andreas shared his entrepreneurial journey, giving us a behind-the-scenes look at Cognixion ONE—a groundbreaking brain-computer interface (BCI) headset that merges BCI and augmented reality (AR) to revolutionize assistive technology. Today, he’s back with even more exciting updates!

In this episode, Andreas dives into:

• The future of a $320B assistive reality market, addressing over 400 neurological conditions like ALS and autism.
• Cognixion's FDA-designated breakthrough device, a BCI-AR headset already making waves in major medical institutions.
• The convergence of brain signals, AI, AR, and assistive tech to create hands-free control for those with ALS, MS, and spinal cord injuries.
• The role of patents and intellectual property in shaping neurotech’s future—Cognixion leads the way with over 50 global patents!
• Career opportunities in this fast-growing field and how your skills could fit into the transformative world of BCIs and assistive tech.

Whether you’re fascinated by neurotech, curious about AR’s potential, or seeking insights into a career in assistive technology, this episode is for you!

Andreas also touches on ethical considerations around privacy and security in a connected world, adding depth to this must-listen conversation.

Tune in and join us on this journey into the future of neurotechnology, where innovation meets compassion, and possibilities are endless!
