It is time to leverage technology to correct the challenges people have with their minds: Antano Solar, CE.. – ETHealthWorld
Posted: July 11, 2022 at 3:57 am
Shahid Akhter, editor, ETHealthworld, spoke to Antano Solar, CEO, Antano & Harini Legacy Accelerators, to find out the advancements in neurotechnology that can help to fast-track personal evolution.
Neuro Tech: Advancements in emotional wellnessThere are a lot of interesting things that are happening in neurotech that can enable solutions that weren't accessible earlier, from feeling emotionally different from within to having access to a remote arm or to develop physical abilities that were impossible. There's a lot that's happening in neurotech. So over the last ten years, scientists have been able to figure out how does the brain communicate within itself and thereby how to tap into that signaling system and leverage that with external devices. And there are both invasive and non-invasive methods.
There are noninvasive methods that can stimulate what's happening in the brain, but there are also advancements when it comes to nanoscience and the interfacing with the brain. Initially, it was thought that this technology will be helpful for people who are paralyzed and for controlling other functions of the body. But the latest advancement shows that these can also be used for emotional wellness, because the entire world is recognizing that the next big advancement in science is not going to be about how to correct the body, but it's going to be about how to correct the mind. And as it happened in history all over again, humankind is turning towards machines and technology to see how that can be leveraged to correct the challenges people have with their mind, with their emotions, with their feelings. Because at some level, these are involuntary functions.
Every emotion that we have is there for a purpose, from feeling lonely to feeling low. Sometimes there's a thin line between fear and being cautious. There's a thin line between being intuitive about danger versus being suspicious. And I think that's wisdom. Now, when you isolate wisdom and you just attach a machine that would just make you confident, that just makes you happy, then what you're really doing is you're stripping out the body's natural mechanism for being intuitive about what to feel at any given point in time. So at every decade, every century, there is something that is unique for the human race to actually thrive. For there was a point in time and it was overcoming slavery and getting freedom.
They have to have a larger ecosystem of people. Now, all of these can take decades to happen, but with the right set of capabilities and personal transformation, anyone can launch a legacy within two to three years. Even if in the regular track that have taken up 20 or 30 years, it can be time compressed to two or three years excellence. Installation specialists have this capability to take an individual into a very different altered state with their eyes open, while they're still awake, where the individual has access to some of the involuntary functions that they wouldn't otherwise have in their waking state. And from that space, certain activities, games, or even a form of communication or metaphoric storytelling can have a direct impact on the deep autonomous system.
When we are working on conditions like autoimmune, we also take what I call personal evolution log, where we record a person a year before they come, from the time we recorded a person when they come, and a year after that, so that they can compare the difference in what's happening to them across a period of time. Because with most things that concerns the body, when a change happens, you can see it. But the better thing is what it continues to do in the months and years to come. So that's why all our methods of validation include immediate testing as well as long term documentation.
Antano & Harini Legacy AcceleratorMy fascination is artificial intelligence, data and systems, and helping people understand technology. But I was also parallely fascinated about the mind. And I always found the latest technology available to help people solve challenges with their mind, with their emotions and their feelings. But it was not even possible for me to conceive at that point in time that helping someone have a relaxed mind or helping someone to think clearly can have a physical benefit. Until one day, when someone in the US, who met with an accident approached me asking that doctors have told him that he's going to be quadriplegic and he cannot move anything below his shoulders for the rest of his life because there's a C Five fracture and a nervous cut and is there any way that I could help him regain movements. And I was like, how is it even possible that he's asking me something like this? But being who I am, I knew that just because I didn't know how to and just because medical science at that point didn't know how to doesn't mean that there is no choice for him.
Neuro Tech: Body backup mechanismThere must be some way. So I started exploring all possibilities. I wrote from the most advanced societies in medical science to all alternate therapies. And I started searching for is there someone who would have a solution for this young man who is an IED graduate and his life has just turned upside down? And that's when I discovered and it was John Grinder.
He mentored me. And I found that there are some people for whom naturally, the body has a backup mechanism. A lot of people who get paralyzed stay paralyzed for the rest of their life. But there are some people for whom naturally, the backup system in the neurology activates itself. So I started exploring.
There must be a connection between why that backup system works for some people and why for others, it doesn't work. And I stumbled upon the ability of the neurology to do something called as plasticity to take the nerves that are specifically designed for one function to learn and do the functioning of the neighboring nerves. And we were able to figure out that if you help someone with internal involuntary responses in their thinking and their emotions, and also if you're able to give accurate biofeedback to the neurology, it increases the possibility for the body to selfactivate the backup mechanisms that we are born and gifted with.

Elon Musk Secretly Fathered Twins With His Company’s Executive: Report – KFI AM 640
Posted: at 3:57 am
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is reported to have fathered twins with Shivon Zilis, an executive at one of his other companies, Neuralink, last year, according to court filings obtained by Business Insider as part of an exclusive report.
The filings reportedly confirmed that the children's middle names are Zillis and last names are Musk, according to Business Insider.
CNN Business reports it was unable to independently confirmed the documents, but did obtain a Travis County, Texas court docket that showed that a name changed for the children was initially filed in April 2022 and granted in early May, which matched the dates reported by Business Insider.
Neuralink is a neurotechnology company that is aiming to develop a computer chip capable of being planted in the human brain, according to documents obtained by Business Insider.
Zilis has had professional ties to Musk since at least April 2016, when she became an advisor to OpenAl, a non-profit research laboratory which the billionaire co-founded, according to her LinkedIn.
Zillis has since worked for both Tesla and Neuralink dating back to May 2017 and currently serves as director of operations for the neurotechnology company, as well as having served as a board member at OpenAl since 2020.
The report comes weeks after Musk shared a tweet on May 24 stating "USA birth rate has been below min sustainable levels for ~50 years," which remains pinned to his profile as of Thursday (July 7).
Musk had previously fathered twins with his first wife, Justine, in 2004, as well as triplets two years later.
The billionaire later fathered two children with musician Claire 'Grimes' Boucher, with the latter born through a surrogate in December 2021.

Musk’s Twitter $44 Billion Bid Includes Financier Close to Russia – Report By Investing.com – Investing.com
Posted: at 6:43 pm
By Senad Karaahmetovic
Elon Musks $44 billion bid for Twitter (NYSE:) has attracted an investor close to a Russian tycoon, Bloomberg News reports.
Vy Capital, a Dubai-based investment firm that manages over $5 billion in assets whose single-page website shows no address nor contact details, has committed $700 million to help Tesla's (NASDAQ:) Musk finance his takeover of Twitter.
The investment makes Vy Capital the third biggest outside backer involved in the deal, alongside Sequoia Capital and Larry Ellison.
The firm was founded by Alexander Tamas, a German national who was previously linked with Russian-Israeli tycoon Yuri Milner. If the deal with Twitter goes through, Vy Capital will have financed one of the largest ever leveraged acquisitions, marking a remarkable achievement for a firm with a very small number of public records that display its funding sources.
Vy Capital also invested in Musks Boring Company and digital asset exchange ErisX, according to PitchBook. Moreover, the firms founder Tamas also backed Musks spacecraft engineering company SpaceX and neurotechnology company Neuralink, suggesting that the investor has been deepening his relationship with Musk.
In 2020, a document from the blank-check company Vy Global Growth showed that Vy Capital manages over $2 billion in assets, with that number more than doubling since.

Cuba is the only nation with a governmental science and technology program on the brain – Granma English
Posted: at 4:37 am
The accelerated development of neuroimaging has made it possible to deepen our knowledge of each specific area of the brain. Photo: Courtesy of the interviewee
Brain mapping projects began in the 1990s with the mission of deepening knowledge of the anatomy and functions of the brain with the use of high-performance neuroimaging equipment, including nuclear magnetic resonance and computerized axial tomography.In undertaking such promising research, neuroscientists sought to better understand the role played by each of the structures of the most complex organ in the human body, how they participate in the work of the brain as a whole, the behavior of neuronal interconnections and other enigmas yet to be revealed, in order to advance in the early diagnosis of neurological and psychiatric disease, to achieve more effective treatments.To learn about the state of studies on the subject at the international level and what Cuba has done in this field, Granma reached out to Doctor of Science Pedro Valds Sosa, researcher at the Center for Neurosciences of Cuba, head of the Cuban Brain Mapping Project and director of the China-Cuba Joint Neurotechnology Laboratory created in July 2015 and based in the city of Chengdu.-What features distinguish brain mapping projects and what are the most relevant findings?-In brain research today, practically all sciences converge, from molecular biology, genetics, bioinformatics, mathematics, physics and neurosciences in general to psychological and social studies.The main feature of the global projects is the spatial mapping of the organ in all its aspects, which include, for example, epigenetics, proteomics, blood flow, and electrical and magnetic activity.Thanks to the vertiginous advance of technology in neuroimaging, it is now possible to make brain maps in three dimensions. These can vary over time, from one milliseconds to another, or last a lifetime.Based on the development of another currently prominent branch of science, neuroinformatics, databases are created from neuro-images and other data, the processing and analysis of which have become vital to the work of researchers.Given that gene and pharmacological therapies cannot completely eliminate the disabling motor effects of cerebrovascular accidents and other events, neurosciences are opening new perspectives to improve the quality of life of persons with these limitations, putting solutions within the reach of medicine that were once conceived only in the realm of science fiction, like the creation of bionic organs, electronic devices capable of inter-acting with the nervous system, etc.Among the main results of brain mapping projects, which have reached an unprecedented level of detail, is the creation of the most accurate brain map of the motor cortex, linked to movement, by the Allen Institute, in the United States. Plus, the reconstruction of the brain of a deceased woman, in a computer with a resolution of 20 microns, made by the scientist Alan Evans of the Montreal Neurological Institute, Canada, and Katrin Amunts, scientific director of the European Brain Project.This atlas is known as the Big Brain, which is enriched with data from multiple sources, a project in which Cuba and the Chinese-Cuban Joint Laboratory are actively collaborating.I must emphasize that the totality of the data obtained by the different brain mapping projects are openly shared, as part of the Open Science movement, accompanied with the Free Software movement. These resources are vital for Public Health and the development of biotechnology."-How is the Cuban brain mapping project going?-Cuba was among the first nations in which scientists conducted a brain mapping project, in the1990s, but only with the use of electro-encephalograms. We then undertook a second phase in 2004, in which we incorporated magnetic resonance imaging. In 2019 we became the only nation to have a governmental National Science and Technology Program on the brain.Our project maintains strong links of exchange and collaboration with the rest of the brain mapping projects currently underway in the world. In certain areas, our work is recognized by the international community in this field. Some of the relevant contributions include having managed to characterize the cortical thickness and brain connections of the typical Cuban, for an age range of 15 to 60 years of age, information used in the study of patients with epilepsy, language disorders, violent behaviors, schizophrenia and several neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases."-What results has the China-Cuba Joint Laboratory of Neurotechnology produced?-The Laboratory's research has contributed significantly to global brain mapping projects, and was the subject of more than 60 scientific articles published in impact journals such as Nature Scientific Data, and most recently in the National Science Review, addressing the effects of covid-19 on the brain, and as part of a collaboration that led to a recent article in Nature.Under the Laboratorys guidance, a high-performance computing node was created for the processing of neuroinformatics data from the collaborative project between Cuba, China and Canada, related to the early detection of neurological ailments and the management of brain aging, the establishment of an academic station for Precision Medicine, in which five Academians of Merit from the Cuban Academy of Sciences are participating."

3 Disruptive Tech Stocks to Go All In on Now – InvestorPlace
Posted: at 4:37 am
The best disruptive tech stocks are thosethat are shaping the future. Disruptive companies boast unique competitive advantages as well as sticky consumer and global footprints. While investing in these stocks suggests elevated risk and volatility, it also provides investors with the potential to generate stellar returns.
It has been a rough ride for tech stocks so far in 2022. Rising interest rates and disappointing earnings results have weighed on the markets, bringing their lofty valuations down to reasonable levels. Both the tech-heavyNasdaq-100Indexand theDow Jones U.S. Technology Index have declined over 20% year-to-date (YTD), placing tech stocks around bear-market territory.
Seasoned investors are debating whether the second quarter is the right time to grab disruptive tech stocks at reasonable prices. Cheaper prices make these attractive. However, investing in these stocks, especially in a bear market, requires patience and a longer-term view of their investments.
With that information, here are the three best disruptive tech stocks to buy for lucrative gains in 2022.
Proto Labs(NYSE:PRLB) provides digital manufacturing services for custom prototypes and on-demand production parts. In early 2021, Proto Labsacquired the Netherlands-based Hubs in a deal worth $280 million.
On May 6, Proto Labs releasedQ1 results. Revenue increased 6.9% year-over-year (YOY) to $124.2 million. Adjusted net income came in at 38 cents per diluted share, down from 40 cents a year ago. Cash and equivalents ended the period at $57.2 million.
Topline growth was primarily driven by 3D Printing and CNC Machining services, which saw rising order volumes from key customers. CNC Machining brought in $46.1 million, up 26% YOY. Despite increasing logistical and raw material costs, gross margin was an impressive 45.7% of revenue. Management anticipates generating revenue of $123 million to $131 million in the second quarter.
So far in 2022, PRLB stock has declined 10%. Shares are trading at 27.5 times forward earnings and 2.5 times sales. The 12-month median price forecast for Proto Labs stockstands at $53.
PTC(NASDAQ:PTC) is a leading software name wishing to transform manufacturing through web-based technologies. It primarily offers high-end computer-assisted design (CAD) and product lifecycle management (PLM) software, as well as Internet of Things (IoT) and augmented reality (AR) industrial solutions.

Galea's unique multi-modal sensor network and complementary software dramatically simplifies the process of collecting tightly-synchronized data from the body and unlocks new techniques for anyone looking to objectively measure user experiences and cognitive states.
"Ultimately, I see the combination of neurotechnology and mixed reality as the future of personal computers," says OpenBCI founder and CEO, Conor Russomanno. "We've been watching carefully as neuroscience, BCI, and consumer technology have converged over the past several years. Varjo's headsets are some of the best I've ever experienced and I can't wait to see what our Beta users will be able to create with Galea."
"Varjo is proud to join forces with OpenBCI and expand access to the highest-fidelity VR to the research and developer community looking to pioneer new understandings of the human body and mind," said Urho Konttori, co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Varjo. "The integration will allow Galea users to unlock the most immersive VR experience available on the market today and truly push the boundaries of innovation in a number of fields."
Pre-orders for Galea will initially be open to the thousands of companies, developers, and researchers who have already applied to the Galea Beta Program. Remaining units will be available for pre-order by the general public on July 1, 2022. For more information on Galea visit https://galea.co/.
