Overview
Synchron is a brain-computer interface (BCI) company developing the Stentrode, a stentrode-based BCI implant that does not require open-brain surgery. Founded by neurologist Tom Oxley, the company has raised over $345M in total funding including a $200M Series D in 2024. Synchron's COMMAND and Switch clinical trials demonstrated no serious device-related adverse events across 6 patients, and the FDA has approved the Stentrode for early feasibility studies. The company is based in New York with origins in Melbourne, Australia.
