Man And Machine Part 2

The video discusses Neuropace, a company focused on treating epilepsy using a closed loop system that senses brain activity and intervenes with electrical pulses. The system, similar to a pacemaker, has been approved by the FDA and is used to treat epilepsy and other brain disorders. The data collected is analyzed using machine learning to identify biomarkers and improve treatment. Ethical considerations, data privacy, and cost are also addressed, highlighting the importance of patient empowerment and accessibility.
