Neurosom Electric Sleep Therapy

Neurosom® is pleased to announce that a generous donor has funded a new Parkinson’s disease study at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to continue research using the Sleep WISP® therapy system. The study will be supported by the Glickenhaus Research Scholar Award and will be led by Dr. Allison C. Waters, PhD, Director of the Waters Lab within the Nash Family Center for Advanced Circuit Therapeutics and Medical Advisor to Neurosom, in collaboration with a multidisciplinary clinical team including Dr. Joohi Jimenez-Shahed, Dr. Emmanuel During, MD, and Dr. Rachel Fremont.
The Neurosom Sleep WISP® is a wearable EEG/tES sleep therapy system designed for use at home and built to support cognitive health. The system uses AI to track sleep stages in real time and delivers gentle stimulation designed to lengthen deep sleep, enabling personalized treatment for greater clearance of metabolic brain waste.
A recent publication by Dr. Waters and colleagues in Clinical Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, titled “Emerging neurotechnological approaches to management of sleep disturbances in Parkinson’s disease,” reviews the growing role of neurotechnology in addressing sleep dysfunction in PD. The authors note that sleep disturbance is among the most common and debilitating non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Increasing evidence suggests that disrupted sleep not only reduces quality of life but may also interact with the underlying neurodegenerative process. The paper highlights research indicating that degradation of healthy sleep is closely linked with disease progression and may reflect overlapping biological mechanisms between early synuclein pathology and disrupted sleep architecture. The authors conclude that integrating emerging sleep neurotechnologies with comprehensive monitoring of sleep physiology may enable therapeutic programs capable of improving sleep and potentially slowing disease progression in Parkinson’s disease.
Dr. Waters emphasized the broader significance of the work:
“Neurology is entering an era where we can measure brain states in real time and intervene precisely. Sleep WISP is an example of that future. By detecting deep sleep and gently synchronizing the brain’s slow oscillations, we can begin to engineer healthier sleep in people living with Parkinson’s disease.”
The new Mount Sinai study will further investigate whether enhancing deep sleep through closed-loop neuromodulation can improve sleep quality and downstream health outcomes in people with Parkinson’s disease. The project brings together expertise in sleep medicine, movement disorders, psychiatry, and neurotechnology to evaluate both feasibility and therapeutic potential in real-world home settings.
Neurosom is proud to support this collaborative effort and to continue advancing research aimed at improving the lives of people living with Parkinson’s disease through innovative sleep-focused neurotechnology.

Neurosom's CEO and founder, Viral Sheth, is excited to present at '26 USA next week. https://www.lsiusasummit.com/
- Neurosom's mission is to improve aging, brain health, and reduce the risk of dementia through noninvasive sleep therapy.
- The Sleep WISP headband uses AI to track EEG stages and apply personalized gentle stimulation to optimize deep sleep, comfortably used at home.
- The company won the Investment from the Angel Oregon Life and BioScience Award Program in December, recognizing its innovation and clinical potential.
- Neurosom led a successful oversubscribed bridge round shortly after the AOBIO award win.
- The company received FDA clearance in 2025 for NEAT AI-powered software, which accurately assesses the sleep stages and programs personalized therapy.
- The Sleep WISP has also received a patent allowance for measuring Glymphatic Clearance Capacity through skin-brain impedance measures, adding the ability to not only register the change in glymphatic waste clearance in the brain, but also to improve glymphatic flow through the stimulation of the Sleep WISP.

Neurosom is attending and sponsoring the Oxford Glymphatic & Brain Clearance Symposium, March 30 – April 1st.
https://oxfordglymphaticsymposium.co.uk/
Dr. Don Tucker, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer, and Dr. Phan Luu, Chief Technology Officer, of Neurosom will attend the Oxford Glymphatic & Brain Clearance Symposium. Neurosom is also a proud sponsor of the conference. The second annual Symposium, this year held at Oxford's prestigious Keble College, will bring together leading experts on glymphatic clearance, including keynote speaker Dr. Maiken Nedergaard, D.MSc., considered to be the discoverer of the "glymphatic system." Program topics will include sleep-related physiology, pathways for CSF clearance, and valid measures of glymphatic function.

As Brain Health Week comes to a close, Neurosom’s newly allowed patent for Glymphatic Clearance Monitoring and Enhancement marks a powerful next chapter for our products. Building on the strength of Sleep WISP® and NEAT technology, we can now measure the brain’s glymphatic clearance capacity through a unique AI-driven brain impedance computation. This breakthrough provides an objective metric of glymphatic function—adding another valuable capability to Sleep WISP®.

For Brain Health Week, Neurosom is highlighting our deep dive into the Glymphatic System—the brain’s fluid-driven network responsible for clearing metabolic waste.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve explored the discovery of this system and how the Sleep WISP® is designed to support its natural clearance process by extending time spent in N3 deep sleep—the stage most closely associated with restorative brain function.
We’ve also shared how our FDA-cleared NEAT software uses advanced AI to analyze EEG signals, optimize sleep architecture, and support long-term brain health, including strategies to reduce the risk of dementia.
Better sleep. Smarter technology. Healthier brains.

Brain Health Week is coming up! To get ready, we’re highlighting NEAT architecture and how Neurosom® AI software identifies the optimal window for glymphatic clearance.
NEAT, our FDA-cleared sleep staging software, was built using a deep neural network trained on multi-site PSG datasets. With high accuracy, NEAT detects when a sleeper has remained in Stage 2 sleep for the appropriate duration and guides Sleep WISP® stimulation to help transition the sleeper—in most cases—into deep sleep.
This transition is considered a critical window for the brain to clear metabolic waste, a process that has been linked to dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases. By optimizing sleep timing and precisely guiding stimulation, NEAT helps create the conditions that support improved glymphatic flow.
NEAT (Neurosom EEG Assessment Technology) also delivers AASM-compliant hypnograms and was developed under a Quality Management System.

On August 15, 2012, Dr. Maiken Nedergaard, M.D., D.MSc., and Dr. Jeff Illiff, PhD, and associates at the University of Rochester published a groundbreaking study in Science Translational Medicine that named a new functionality of the human brain, the "glymphatic system". The paper outlined how the brain uses a specific anatomical structure and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to clear itself of harmful metabolic waste. For years, scientists had speculated that CSF flow in the brain had a waste-clearing mechanism, but were unable to prove it due to a lack of imaging technology. Nedergaard and her lab were able to study the brain structure in healthy mice using "two-photon microscopy", which allows scientists to see the flow of blood, CSF, and other fluids in a living brain. Nedergaard named the structure the "glymphatic system" for its similarity to the lymphatic system and for the role of "glial" brain cells in the process.
