Motif Neurotech

Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rice University with a Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Cornell and a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard focused on BCI and bioelectronics. He spent 12 years at Rice leading a lab that published over 60 peer-reviewed articles in Nature, Science, and Nature Biomedical Engineering, and secured over $40 million in federal funding, including multiple DARPA neurotech grants. He founded Motif Neurotech in 2022 to commercialise the DOT (Digitally programmable Over-brain Therapeutic) — a blueberry-sized device that sits in the skull above the dura without touching the brain, targeting mood and cognitive disorders.
