It holds within its humming mechanism secrets that will determine the future of the human race." Famous neurologist Dr. Wilder Penfield had once said these words, which still holds one of the greatest truths about the past and the future of the human brains. Over the years, new challenges have flooded the domain of neuroscience, and with every passing year, neurologists have come up with advanced solutions to address those. We reside in an age where one can witness the crossroads of medicine and technology that have allowed for drastic advancement in neurologic disorders, making it a "the century of the brain." While the number of neurological disorders is rising, organizations are churning out numerous innovative devices that have granted patients nonpharmacologic, noninvasive options in disease states.New technologies like VR, robotic-assisted training, functional electrostimulation, noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) are stepping up the game to improve the quality of neurorehabilitation, and further deal with brain excitability and plasticity. Technologies such as functional MRI, near-infrared spectroscopy, high-density EEG, and more can play an instrumental role in redefining the approaches to neurological disorders.New and innovative ways are being developed to detect the symptoms of dementia or any neurological disorders at their inception. Neurologists are leveraging technologies like AI and machine learning to develop better techniques for assessing brain functioning. With the government sanctioning new wearable neurological devices, the sale of those these gadgets are on the rise. In this edition, we have put together a story about Cognivue® that is driven by the mission to change the U.S.'s Cognitive screening or testing methods. We have delved deep into the evolution of the company and the pedestal it currently stands on with its soon-to-be-launched Gen 4 of the computerized device for early detection of cognitive decline.The Future of the Brain is NowSarah FernandesEDITORIAL
