 Eywa Neuro's research, spearheaded by Dr. Deepti Chugh and Dr. Arjun Ramakrishnan, secures the coveted Best Poster Prize at IIT Kanpur's Mehta Center for Engineering in Medicine, showcasing their innovative research on flexible neural interfaces. The team's groundbreaking work not only sheds light on the intricate neural dynamics of epileptogenesis in a Lafora mouse model but also holds promising implications for advancing both the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, highlighting their dedication to pushing the boundaries of neuroscience. 

Eywa Neuro was invited by IIT Bombay Nanofabrication Facility  to demonstrate microfabricated thin film electrodes to DST officials. In the image here, Kaustubh can be seen explaining to a DST Scientist  the use of thin-film microfabricated electrodes and their commercialization potential.

As part of PM Modi's Digital India initiative, Eywa Neuro was invited to present its technology, as an innovation in the field of nanotechnology/semiconductor development, by IIT Bombay and the Centre of Excellence in Nanotechnology, IITB

Eywa Neuro partners with Dr. Santosh Misra and Dr, Arjun Ramakrishnan at IIT Kanpur to build high-channel count, thin film microelectrodes for neurosurgical intervention in patients with epilepsy. This work will be funded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) under their 'Ad-hoc Projects Under Extramural Research' Program

Based on the work done by Kaustubh on Implantable Neural MEMS Devices, Kaustubh was awarded the 'National Initiative for Developing and Harnessing Innovations (NIDHI) - Entrepreneur in Residence' Fellowship by the Dept. of Science and Technology, India

Dr. Amol Yadav at Indiana University School of Medicine successfully tested our spinal cord probes for his acute stimulation experiments. He implanted our 16ch flexible polyimide probe in the spinal cord dorsal anatomy of a rodent.

In recognition of the work done Eywa Neuro on polyimide neural probes, IIT Bombay Nanofabrication Facility decided to showcase our achievement by publishing an article about us on their website. Please follow the link for more details:

Recordings and Stimulation were performed in anesthetized rats, from the hippocampus region successfully. The probes showed that minimal tissue damage was caused from the implants and explants, and furthered our belief that the Polyimide probes can lend themselves well in a clinical setting.

As of September 21, 2021, Eywa Neuro has been certified under IAF and IAS guidelines for compliance with ISO 9001:2015 QMS requirements, as an OEM and Contract Manufacturer for Neural Microelectrodes.

Kaustubh was invited by NeuroTechX India to deliver a talk on the 4th of September 2021,  on the history of invasive brain-machine interfaces, the latest trends in bioMEMS, commercial companies manufacturing microelectrodes, and the future of iBMIs. The talk was organized to highlight India's role in setting up manufacturing for bioMEMS products, clinical acceptance of iBMIs in patients and the prospective therapies that targeted neurostimulation can assist with.

Eywa Neuro's tetrodes were implanted in a Hawkmoth at National Center for Biological Sciences, Bangalore for Neck-EMG recordings
