by | December 23, 2018

The multi-institutional project team will evaluate market readiness for a novel diagnostic tool for neurological disorders, with an emphasis on epilepsy and other neurological indications. The team will utilize primary and secondary research to evaluate pain points, unmet needs and user requirements for the novel diagnostic tool by focusing on i) unmet needs and desired use cases, ii) technical challenges of development, iii) market readiness, sizing and growth, and iv) comparison to current standard of care.
