Science Corp is preparing to place its first brain sensor in a human, betting biology will beat electrodes

Science Corporation, founded by ex-Neuralink president Max Hodak, will place its first pea-sized brain sensor on a human cortex during routine stroke surgery, with Yale's neurosurgery chair leading trials potentially starting in 2027. The company's unique approach involves developing a "biohybrid" interface using lab-grown, light-sensitive neurons that bridge electronics and brain tissue, distinguishing it from competitors like Neuralink's electrode-focused technology.
