Treating disorders of the brain via targeted neuromodulation
1-2 billion worldwide people suffer from: stroke addiction chronic pain anxiety disorders blindness deafness epilepsy Parkinson’s Alzheimer’s …
>100,000 people with cochlear implants
>50,000 with deep brain stimulatorstens of thousands with spinal
stimulators and other stimulators
