CEO Michael Singer. "We are working hard to develop this next generation technology to provide a reliable, rapid and objective adjunctive assessment of potential TBI for use in triaging patients, particularly in the military where the need is so high."

BrainScope's novel application of advanced mathematics and miniaturized hardware is designed to bridge the limitations of traditional EEG tools, which are bulky, expensive, and require expert data interpretation, to provide easy-to-use, non-invasive and timely tools that can assist with an initial assessment of brain function as well as provide adjunctive assessment across the brain care path.

Backed by Revolution LLC (the investment arm of AOL co-founder Steve Case), ZG Ventures and Alafi Capital, BrainScope is a health technology company that is developing a new generation of hand-held, simple-to-use, non-invasive instruments designed to aid medical professionals in rapidly, accurately, and objectively assessing brain function at the initial point of care. Initially, BrainScope has focused its research and development efforts on optimizing analysis of brain electrical signals to enhance detection and assessment of changes in brain function.

BrainScope's future products could eventually be used for assessment of suspected TBI in soldiers, athletes and accident victims.

Additionally, BrainScope announced the launch of a website, www.brainscope.com, where more information can be found about the company and its technologies.
