- Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)
The cycle of Innovation in Neuroscience has always been a slow one due to many factors. One of the factors is that Neurotechnology is still perceived as a futuristic technology even though it has been around for a long time. NeurotechX has always been a believer that anyone is able to master the field and, as such, our mission is to make a more connected and open community. This talk will help you understand the field a bit more, how to make it open and accessible, as well as provide the skills to properly assess consumer neurotech products on the market.
