I work in the fields of neurotechnology, neuroscience, digital health, data science, and innovation policy, and I’m a co-founder and scientist with System2 Neurotechnology. Prior to this, I was lucky to work with a fantastic team of scientists, engineers, and creators as Chief Scientist and VP of Regulatory Affairs at Interaxon, who make the world’s bestselling electroencephalography platform, Muse. Before that, I was Chief Scientist with Meta (now Chan-Zuckerberg Meta), and I served as Managing Editor of Frontiers in Neuroscience as it grew to become the largest open access scholarly journal series in the field of neuroscience. I’ve also done industry-based neurophysiology research and product development at the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) at Université Aix-Marseille in partnership with cochlear implant maker Oticon Medical (formerly Neurelec), where I completed a PhD under the direction of Catherine Liégeois-Chauvel and Christine Assaiante.
I’m a Senior Fellow at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy (at the University of Toronto), a member of the board of the Ontario Centre of Innovation, and an advisor to the OECD’s neurotechnology policy initiative. I also sat on the NSERC Discovery Grants committee on Biological Systems and Functions for the 2019-2021 term.
