NeuroNYC Fireside Chat + Happy Hour: The State of Jobs in Neurotech | February 12th
Join us for an exciting evening of conversation and connection at NeuroNYC Happy Hour! This in-person mixer brings together innovators, researchers, investors, and enthusiasts at the intersection of neuroscience and technology.
We’re thrilled to feature a fireside chat on the State of Jobs & Hiring in Neurotech (2026) - a candid conversation spanning both sides of the market, from industry leaders who are hiring to recruiters speaking directly with candidates. We’ll cover what’s changing in hiring right now, the roles and skills teams are prioritizing, and what job seekers should know as the field evolves.
Featured speakers include Chay Carter (Carter Sciences; and recently launched recruiting software Reccy!), alongside Conor Russomanno (founder and CEO of OpenBCI). Moderated by Margot Hanley, PhD!
