To revolutionise the treatment of cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative diseases where there is no effective drug therapy available today.
Diseases of cerebrovascular origins such as resistant hypertension, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia rank alongside cancer as one of the greatest healthcare challenges faced by humanity, affecting one in three in later life.
Currently, there are no efficient drugs or treatment proven to modify the course of these diseases. Bioinduction will develop a precisely targetted brain pacemaker that offers new hope for the millions of sufferers.
As Wired Health reports: “the future of medication isn’t drugs and their countless side effects but electrical implants!”

world have hypertension

The Solution
New brain targets identified
Cerebrovascular diseases have one thing in common: a reduction in the cerebral blood flow.
Bioinduction has developed and patented a new treatment that restores normal blood flow to the brain.
Skull-mounted brain pacemaker
To give millions of people access to this treatment, we have developed Picostim, a miniaturised brain pacemaker, which is small enough to be skull-mounted.
Picostim is a third of the size of current devices and can be implanted in half the time.
