The Heritage Provider Network, the National Institutes of Health and Center for Advancing Innovation have partnered to create a "first of a kind" Brain Challenge. The website is : brainstartupchalleng.com! The Challenge will feature 15-20 brain related inventions that have commercial viability and are important to public health. The primary goal of the Challenge is to stimulate the creation of start-up businesses based upon these inventions. Entries will start being accepted August 1st, 2015.
Please support the effort: spread the word; nominate a judge/mentor or start/join a team!
