NeuroTech Harbor

NeuroTech Harbor is proud to announce the launch of our podcast series, NeuroTalk with NeuroTech Harbor!

One in every three people in the US are impacted by neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and MS. With the help of cutting-edge technological solutions, we can revolutionize the way we diagnose, monitor, and treat these conditions.

NeuroTalk is a podcast hosted by NeuroTech Harbor (NTH), a neuromedical ecosystem forged as a partnership between The Johns Hopkins University and Howard University to co-administrate the NIH Blueprint MedTech program, an initiative accelerating the development of cutting-edge medical devices that will prevent, diagnose, and/or treat disorders involving the nervous system. Through conversations with researchers, investors, policymakers, and clinicians, NeuroTalk explores the research & innovation, business & investment, and policy & ethics of the neuroscience industry.
