🌟Breaking News: Precision Neuroscience Raises $102M in Series C Funding 🌟 We're thrilled to announce the successful close of our $102M Series C funding round, bringing our total funding to $155M. This milestone establishes @PrecisionNeuro_ as the best-funded brain-computer interface (BCI) company after Neuralink. In the coming years, BCI technology has the potential to  change what it means to be physically disabled, breaking down barriers to communication, employment, and independence. This latest investment is a testament to the growing momentum in our field, and the impact it could have on lives around the world. A huge thank you to our investors, team, partners, and, especially, the patients who have volunteered to participate in our clinical research. We're excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what's possible. Read the full news release here:
