Neupulse Attends Launch of N3 Centre for Neurotechnology, Neuromodulation and Neurotherapeutics
The University of Nottingham proudly celebrated the official opening of its Centre for Neurotechnology, Neuromodulation and Neurotherapeutics (N3), a major new initiative set to transform the future of brain health through cutting-edge innovation. The launch event, held on campus this week, brought together scientists and researchers from the centres team for insightful and inspiring talks about what the future holds. The N3 Centre marks a new chapter in brain health research and development, uniting world-class expertise in neurotechnology to accelerate the creation of devices that diagnose, manage and treat conditions such as Tourette Syndrome, dementia, depression and psychosis. The Centre builds on Nottingham’s global reputation in brain imaging and neuroscience and aims to translate scientific breakthroughs into real-world impact. As part of the event, attendees had the unique opportunity to preview our soon-to-be-released device, which uses non-invasive electrical stimulation to modulate brain activity and reduce tic severity. The Neupulse team was on hand to demonstrate the technology and answer questions. The N3 Centre will drive research across a range of exciting areas including state-of-the-art brain imaging, low-intensity ultrasound stimulation, closed-loop neuromodulation and wearable brain scanners. A key focus is making these technologies accessible and non-invasive, moving beyond traditional deep brain stimulation techniques to deliver safer, scalable alternatives. Director of the Centre and one of the Neupulse founders, Professor Stephen Jackson, addressed the audience, highlighting the urgent need for innovation in brain healthcare. With continued support from United Kingdom Research and Innovation (UKRI), the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) and leading research networks and with groundbreaking companies like Neupulse and Cerca Magnetics actively contributing to the ecosystem, the N3 Centre is positioned to be a national leader in advancing neurotechnology. The event was a powerful demonstration of the university’s and Neupulse's commitment to innovation, collaboration and improving lives. It set the tone for a future where brain health solutions are smarter, safer and more accessible to all. You can find out more about the N3 Centre here.
