We are developing evidence based neurotherapeutics in VR-based video game form. Our treatments target specific cognitive impairments with huge functional implications that impact the lives of the healthy aging, patients with many forms of brain injury and individuals with one of several neurogenetic disorders. Our patent-pending designs combine evidence from clinical cognitive neuroscience with that showing specific improvements of the spatial and temporal information processing systems we target from the "active compound" of playing action video games.

Liquid Gold Concept
Description
Comprehensive and customizable breastfeeding education technology for parents and providers.
Long Description

From the start, our team focused on improving the breastfeeding experience. Initially, we wanted to redesign the breast pump.

When Anna, our co-founder and CEO, interned in Brazil, she learned about different manual breast massage techniques that can help mothers express milk, increase milk supply, and alleviate pain from engorgement. That’s when we realized that we cannot keep putting technology between the mom and the baby. Instead, we need to initiate a breastfeeding culture shift in the United States.

Our goal is to improve the breastfeeding experience by discovering, testing, and teaching evidence-based breast massage techniques to parents and health providers.
