Who are the BCI Pioneers and Why?

Visit the Coalition

Do you want to know what it’s like to use an implanted BCI device? Come hear the first-hand experiences and personal stories of four renowned individuals that participated in BCI clinical trials.

This panel will discuss the individual motivations and concerns of using these devices, what each participant hopes for the future of BCI technology, and the creation of the BCI Pioneers Coalition to further discussions within the community, especially for those who are considering device implantation. BCI Guy, Harrison Canning will moderate the discussion in partnership with the BCI Coalition panel members Ian Burkhart, Nathan Copeland, Nancy Smith, and Jan Scheuermann.

This webinar was sponsored by Blackrock Neurotech.
