User Representation in Neurotech: A Fireside Chat
Join us for an evening focused on user representation in neurotech: what it looks like today, where the gaps are, and what it will take to build technology that genuinely reflects the people it’s meant to serve.
The evening brings together researchers, clinicians, founders, and advocates approaching the problem from distinct angles: from what non-invasive neural data can currently decode, to what running a clinical trial actually looks like from the inside, to where users fit as these systems mature.
As neurotechnology moves closer to clinical reality, the conversation around who we build for is becoming central and this evening is dedicated to exactly that.
