Since 2018 Virtuleap has been at the cutting edge of combining neuroscience and virtual reality to help increase attention levels, and address cognitive illnesses, disorders, and learning challenges. 

On this episode, Amir Bozorgzadeh, Cofounder and CEO of Virtuleap is back to tell us all about the release of Cogniclear VR, an immersive cognitive screening test that uses gamified scenarios to assess a wide range of crucial cognitive abilities and collect extensive cognitive and behavioral data to enable early intervention, for better health outcomes. 

We dive into the ongoing challenges of:

  • designing accessible apps for cognitive testing
  • sustained attention decline and mental health with the rise of "TikToK Brain"
  • the double-edge sword of leading a start up at the intersection of emerging tech and healthcare 

And how Virtuleap has survived industry changes like “a reed in the wind.”
