Chris Own | Whole-Brain Circuit Maps
from Foresight Institute Radio
How can we get to whole-brain circuit maps?Chris Own develops tools that catalyze new technologies and that promote improvement of the human experience.He is an expert in analytical instrument design and development, with specialties in advanced imaging systems and science instruments, ranging from atomic-resolution structural imaging to portable charged-particle based analyzers.Brain mapping requires scaleable platforms for ultra-high throughput nano-imaging. Chris Own is the founder at Voxa, which specializes in advanced instruments for mapping the brain. His company produced the first portable scanning electron microscope, and then sent that microscope into space where it resides on the ISS.Music:I Knew a Guy by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100199Artist: http://incompetech.com/Remarks: The length of this recording has been altered. Session summary: Chris Own | Foresight Neurotech Seminar - Foresight InstituteThe Foresight Institute is a research organization and non-profit that supports the beneficial development of high-impact technologies. Since our founding in 1987 on a vision of guiding powerful technologies, we have continued to evolve into a many-armed organization that focuses on several fields of science and technology that are too ambitious for legacy institutions to support.Allison Duettmann is the president and CEO of Foresight Institute.
