Your Mind is Infinite

What happens when a periodontist from India faces 1,000 rejections, then co-creates an MIT-winning AI tool for early Parkinson’s detection? Dr. Srividya Narayanan’s journey from the dental chair to the frontlines of neuroscience regulation reveals why the people clearing the regulatory path for brain health technology might matter just as much as the scientists building it. Sri joins us to discuss SynapSense, her AI-powered Parkinson’s screening platform, the FDA landscape for neuroscience devices, and why the future of brain health depends on intelligent regulation — not just brilliant science.

Most people think of wellness as what they do. Mahua Deb believes it is about what they become. A Holistic Wellness Coach, Yoga Teacher, Pranic Healer, Sound Healer, and OSHO Active Meditation Facilitator based in Goa, Mahua has spent years working at the intersection of ancient practices and modern well-being — helping individuals and corporate teams move from stress and disconnection to genuine, embodied health.In this episode, Mahua joins us to explore what holistic healing actually means beyond the buzzword, how practices like sound healing and pranic energy work connect to what we now understand about the brain and nervous system, and why the body is often the first place the mind goes to ask for help.

The science of the brain has never been more powerful. But access to brain health care has never been more unequal. What does it take to close that gap?Join U: The Mind Company in this recording of their last webinar which brough together three leading voices at the intersection of neuroscience, economics, and neurotech:Dr. Guruprasad Hosurkar — Movement disorders specialist, KIMS Hospital IndiaMohammed Abouelsoud-CEO &Founder, U:The Mind CompanyChay Carter — Founder, Carter Sciences & Rekki Neuro; neurotech commercialization expertWe explored the realities of neuromodulation in clinical practice, the economics of brain health access, and the hard truths about what separates neurotech companies that succeed from those that don't.

Jacob Tiab, MD didn't just study medicine and engineering separately. He synthesized them — and used that synthesis to prevent a regulatory product recall by building a data-driven safety case that convinced German and Canadian regulators.In this episode: Pulse Field Ablation and why electrical precision beats thermal damage. Post-market surveillance as strategic infrastructure, not compliance. Where AI is genuinely delivering in medicine — and where it isn't. The ethics of neural data ownership and connected brain device security.🎙️ Listen now. #YourMindIsInfinite #MedTech #AI #Neuromodulation #PhysicianScientist

Seth McLain, co-founder of Plugin, joined us to tell the story that every early-stage founder should hear:How $3,000 and a soft launch validated a concept. Why two years of no-salary bootstrapping built a more resilient company than a seed round would have. How direct customer feedback forced a model pivot that saved the business. What $150,000 raised in a single day looks like when you've earned it.And why the principles that build great startups have nothing to do with what your product does.🎙️ Listen now. #YourMindIsInfinite #Startups #FounderStory #BuildBeforeYouRaise

Chay Carter maps the neurotech talent landscape: who's hiring, why hardware engineers are the sector's most critical shortage, what the commercialization gap looks like after regulatory approval, and why the global geography of neurotech is shifting faster than most people realize.If you're building in neurotech, hiring for it, or investing in it — this one is for you.🎙️ Listen now. #YourMindIsInfinite #Neurotech #BCI #TalentStrategy #HealthcareInnovation

Healthcare systems worldwide face a deepening sustainability crisis — rising costs, workforce shortages, and infrastructure gaps are threatening to make advanced neurological treatments inaccessible to the majority of patients who need them. In this landmark episode, Farah Farahati — a Senior Medical Economics Advisor with over 20 years of experience across U.S. and Canadian payer markets — presents a sustainability-first health economics framework that reframes how we evaluate AI-enabled digital therapeutics.From the three metrics that drive payer adoption to the global argument for home-based care, this episode is essential listening for anyone at the intersection of healthcare, economics, and innovation.

A deep exploration of the paradigm shift from "clinically complete" to "discomplete" paralysis—the discovery that most patients with complete spinal cord injuries have dormant nerve fibers that can be reactivated through neuromodulation, restoring motor function, autonomic control, and quality of life.

In this episode of Your Mind is Infinite, Dr. Sam Khozin shares how he left his medical residency halfway through — a move most would call career suicide. But what he saw from the nurse's station changed everything: a healthcare system designed to fight fires, not prevent them. With half of rural hospitals operating at a loss and closures accelerating — especially in the Midwest and Southwest — he breaks down the perfect storm threatening these communities: reduced funding, weak negotiating power against insurers, and the struggle to attract talent. But he also sees a path forward — one that requires rethinking how hospitals operate from the ground up.

What does it take to restore control to someone whose own body has turned against them? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Guruprasad Hosurkar, Director of Neurology at KIMS Hospital Bengaluru and one of India's leading experts in Parkinson's disease and movement disorders. Dr. Hosurkar takes us inside his work with deep brain stimulation and botulinum toxin therapy, shares what he learned training at Mumbai's legendary KEM Hospital, and discusses the barriers facing the million-plus Indians living with Parkinson's. We explore the surprising connections between sleep disorders and neurodegeneration, what clinicians in resource-limited settings can do to build movement disorder programs, and whether noninvasive neuromodulation could democratize access to care. A must-listen for neurologists, caregivers, and anyone curious about where brain science is headed.

Dr. Priyank Vasavada is a neurosurgeon who refuses to stay confined to the operating room. As the founder of HYGO and AI Health at Madhuram Hospital in Rajkot, India, he's working at the intersection of brain surgery, artificial intelligence, and healthcare entrepreneurship. With experience spanning trust-funded public hospitals, corporate healthcare systems, and private practice, Dr. Vasavada brings a unique perspective on what's broken in healthcare—and what it'll take to fix it. In this episode, we explore the future of brain-computer interfaces, how nanorobotics might one day treat neurological disease, and what happens when a surgeon decides to become a startup founder.

In this compelling episode, we delve into the groundbreaking findings of the Unified Circuit Theory, a paradigm shift in the understanding of movement disorders like Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. Join us as we interview Dr. Priyank Vasavada, a leading expert in neurology, who introduces us to a revolutionary perspective that views these disorders not as isolated conditions but as interconnected manifestations of neural circuit dysregulation.As we explore the intricate analogy of the brain as a symphony orchestra, Dr. Vasavada explains how each movement disorder represents a different section playing out of sync, impacting the harmony of the entire ensemble. We discuss the significance of emerging technologies, such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), neuroimaging, and artificial intelligence, in uncovering these commonalities and driving innovative treatment approaches that focus on network dynamics rather than individual symptoms.Listeners will gain insights into the potential of personalized therapies, including the development of digital twins—computational models that allow for tailored treatment strategies based on individual brain connectivity and activity. We also highlight the importance of holistic care and community support in enhancing the quality of life for those affected by movement disorders.Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that not only redefines how we think about movement disorders but also paves the way for a future where treatments are as unique as the individuals they aim to help.

In this episode, we sit down with Arghajit, Team Lead of the Digital Twin Department at U The Mind Company.
