The Memo: SynPhNe Redefining Stroke and TBI Recovery Through Neuro-Integrative Wearables

Under the direction of Founder and Managing Director Dr. Subhasis Banerji, SynPhNe is bringing a groundbreaking paradigm shift to neurological rehabilitation. With its FDA-cleared, wearable neuro-integrative platform, the company is enabling stroke and brain injury survivors to restore function years beyond the standard recovery window. “SynPhNe digitally restores independent living to those affected by stroke or brain injury,” said Banerji. “It trains brain and muscle in one integrated wearable system, bringing enhanced outcomes, access, and affordability to the doorsteps of those who need it the most.” Origin Story The invention of SynPhNe began with Banerji’s own recovery from a life-altering brain injury. “I beat all odds to make a full recovery after the medical community had given up,” he said. “In the course of this recovery, I realized there is a powerful brain plasticity route to recovery, a paradigm that could change how therapy has been traditionally done for the past 150 ye...

Cover Story Skin in the Game: Ramin Mousavi on CathWorks, Medtronic, and the Art of Building to Be Bought

CathWorks is redefining what a medtech partnership can be through a deliberate, globally minded build-to-buy model aimed at transforming how coronary artery disease is diagnosed and treated. Anchored by its “skin-in-the-game” partnership with Medtronic and its innovative wire-free and drug-free FFRangio System, the company has used markets across the United States, Europe, and Japan as real-world validation engines. The result is a model that combines scientific proof, speedy innovation, scalability, and partnership discipline that could impact how startups position themselves for acquisition. When Ramin Mousavi , President and CEO of CathWorks , steps onto an LSI stage, he likes to mention that CathWorks was the very first company to present at the very first LSI Emerging Medtech Summit, in 2020. It’s an aside delivered with a smile, and is not so much nostalgic but rather a celebratory reflection backed up by 12+ years of startup peaks and valleys, and a game-changing build-to-buy de...
