“If you can drive the brain’s naturally occurring activity, what you can get is the biologic expression that is important for brains to maintain and protect themselves,” Cognito Therapeutics’ CEO Christian Howell tells Bloomberg Intelligence in this episode of the Vanguards of Health Care podcast. Howell sits down with BI analyst Matt Henriksson to discuss the company and its Spectris device — a non-invasive therapeutic intervention designed to use gamma waves to preserve brain structure and function, starting with Alzheimer’s patients. He also highlights the promise of Cognito’s Hope study and reflects on how his time in the Navy and at Medtronic under former CEO Omar Ishrak shaped his “fidelity to the mission” leadership mantra.
