Every year in Indianapolis, the NFL Combine brings together a unique mix of both college athletes and professional sports teams. The NFL Scouting Combine is a week-long showcase at Lucas Oil Stadium where college football players perform physical and mental tests in front of National Football League coaches, general managers, and scouts.
This year at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis, five innovative companies are coming together to host a “Brain Health Lounge”. The brain health lounge will allow Combine attendees the ability to meet representatives from these companies to better understand their technologies and services. Each company provides a complementary solution for improving brain health and wellness. These products include:
- BrainLit: BrainLit is the IP holder and developer of Biocentric lighting, simulating the important elements of natural light, indoors, to improve performance, recovery, and sleep – the preeminent pillar of health.
- NeuroCatch Inc.: The NeuroCatch® Platform, is an industry-leading medical device that offers an objective evaluation of cognitive function, which is delivered in minutes at the point of care. The NeuroCatch Platform can provide value at any time in the care continuum, from initial evaluation or post-injury through ongoing treatment, with immediate results to help guide clinical decisions and evaluate effectiveness of interventions.
- deltaG®: deltaG® Ketones sells a revolutionary technology that allows users to achieve deep states of ketosis safely and immediately. The ketone monoester delivers high amounts of bioidentical ketone bodies into the system for utilization by the muscles, heart, and brain.
- ReactForge: As a pioneer of cognitive development for athletes and sports teams, ReactForge is training the next generational athlete with instant decision-making and unmatched reaction speed for dominating in-game performance.
- Neuronic specializes in innovative photobiomodulation devices designed to support and enhance brain function. Their cutting-edge product, the Neuradiant 1070 helmet, utilizes near-infrared light therapy to foster cognitive health and well-being at all stages of life.
“Global scientific consensus points to light as the most important trigger for a human’s circadian rhythm. Athletes and the teams that support them are severely light deficient, and the consequences to peak performance, recovery and sleep are severe.” said Oliver Moorhouse, SVP Business Development for BrainLit. “Further, rigorous travel between time zones and consolidated competition schedules compound the issue. Biocentric lighting passively redresses the balance by delivering light recipes that are tailored to the unique needs of the individual or organization, be it for game day activation or long-term health.”
“Performance starts with the brain”, said Dr. Ryan CN D’Arcy, President and CSO of NeuroCatch Inc. “From professional athletes to weekend warriors, it is imperative that brain health is prioritized. With sophisticated products and services now available, like the ones showcased in the Brain Health Lounge, it is clear that we are moving the needle in this space and that there are ways to hack the brain for optimal performance”.
“In the pursuit of optimal brain health and cognitive performance, the critical role of energetics cannot be overstated”, said Brian McMahon, Chief Strategy Officer at deltaG Ketones. “As we delve into the intricacies of brain function, it becomes evident that energy balance is a cornerstone for maintaining cognitive well-being. Most forms of aging, symptoms of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), and cognitive underperformance share a common thread – disruptions in the delicate energy equilibrium of the brain.”
“At ReactForge, leveraging data analytics and cutting-edge technologies, we aim to elevate both cognitive capabilities and decision-making prowess alongside athletic performance,” stated Satoshi Takano, CEO & Co-Founder. “Through personalized cognitive training programs, we focus on sharpening reaction times, improving instant decision-making, and optimizing overall performance. Our integrated approach not only propels athletes and professionals to excel but also redefines the benchmarks of success in their respective fields.”
“At Neuronic, we are deeply committed to enhancing brain health through cutting edge technology” stated Liam, Co-Founder at Neuronic. “Our approach revolves around the fundamental belief that brain vitality is central to overall well-being. We recognize that challenges such as aging, traumatic brain injuries, and cognitive impairments often create intricate disturbances in brain functionality. By harnessing the power of transcranial photobiomodulation, we aim to optimize neuro functionality, offering a new horizon in cognitive health and performance.”
The Brain Health Lounge will be open Wed Feb 28th – Friday March 1st from 9am – 5pm and is
located in Room 203 – 204 in the JW Marriott (behind Starbucks on the second floor).
