We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is Dr. Rotem Kopel, Founder and CEO at ABILITY Neurotech.
Their implantable neural recording system is a breakthrough in Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) development, enabling robust communication pathways and enhanced autonomy for people affected by severe paralysis.
I had 2 aha moments with Rotem. The first was when I realized how different their approach is from Neuralink (you’ll have to listen to the show for that) and the second was when I realized that we are both SciFi addicts.
Check out the main topics of discussion for this episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast:
- What set you on the path to founding ABILITY Neurotech—and was there a moment you knew this had to exist?
- Right now — are you in the lab, in the clinic, or in the boardroom?
- If we fast-forward 24 months and you’ve crushed it, what 3 things did you nail?
- What’s been the hardest punch in the face so far—and what did you learn from it?
- Now imagine this: capital is flowing, regulators are on your side, no blockers. What are you building without friction?
Now, without further ado, we’re excited to share with you the next episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast.
