“Through a mix of the BCIs that allow you to kind of change the system, the thing that it's interacting with and our perfusion medicine program we think that there's ways to significantly improve not just lifespan, but healthspan and kind of create a better quality of life for many patients in ways that I think will feel kind of like a lateral move”

Hodak: Science is the first to restore form vision in blind patients
“Nobody had previously ever been able to restore a form vision image in the mind's eye of a blind patient in this way.”
Hodak: Vision, hearing, balance, and 1 kbps motor control unlock radical neurotech
“If you can, if you get vision, hearing, balance, and a kilobit per second of motor control, you're halfway to the matrix. And this takes you into some like really trippy interpret reinterpretations of medicine.”
Hodak: Science aligns animal brain recordings with AI model representations
“We use that constructively at science like that. So we know that that is. That is true because we can get alignments between animal brain neural recordings and AI model internal representations.”
Hodak: Cardiovascular disease and non-brain cancer are attackable via organ replacement
“The two leading causes of death though, are cardiovascular disease and cancer is not metastasized to the brain. And I think both of those are going to be really attackable through this type of work.”
Hodak: The brain and the universe are literally physical computers
“I mean, to me, I don't mean that metaphorically, like the brain very literally, very clearly, plainly is a computer in, in my understanding of the world. I also view the universe generally as a computer. Like we can solve pro like you can solve computational p…”
