The Center for Innovation in Neuroscience and Technology (CINT) at Washington University creates a collaborative environment to develop novel neuro-medical technologies; educates staff and students in the areas of idea generation, valuation, development and application; and creates a connection between academia and industry.
CINT Innovation in Neurotech Fellowship
Innovation is a key component in a transformative ecosystem that promotes regional economic growth and improves healthcare and accessibility. The successful conceptualization and implementation of new ideas requires an interdisciplinary approach that connects engineering principles and the practice of medicine. To bridge the gap between engineering and medicine, CINT offers a unique educational experience through the Innovation in Neurotech Fellowship Program. Applications open in January of each year. Check back in January 2025 for updates.
