Better Sleep Through Neuroscience

About us

StimScience is focused on commercializing our breakthrough neuroscience and sleep research into life-changing products and services for individuals, employers, and health plans. Our team has spent decades pioneering sleep research and non-invasive, personalized brain stimulation applications. It includes world-renowned scientists and advisors Dr. Matthew Walker, Ph.D., Dr. Rich Ivry, Ph.D., Dr. Robert Knight, M.D., Dr. Ram Gurumoorthy, and former employees from Fitbit, Google, and Samsung. With initial funding from Khosla Ventures, we are now building a world-class team to launch Somnee, our advanced diagnostic and therapeutic products that help people fall asleep faster and with longer, higher-quality restorative sleep. Why Sleep? As our founding Chief Science Advisor, Dr Matthew Walker wrote in his bestselling book, "Why We Sleep", “Sleep is the most important thing we can do to reset our brain and body health each day.” Sleep health is central to mental health, long-term memory, learning, and physical fitness. Despite its importance, one in three adults gets an unhealthy amount of sleep, and 51% of people are dissatisfied with their sleep. Sleep is one of the most critical functions of the brain, and our deep understanding of the neuroscience of sleep uniquely positions us to help solve the sleep health epidemic.

    Researchers used to believe that slow wave, deep sleep was most critical for health… But according to Johns Hopkins Medicine, new data suggests that all sleep stages play key roles in our daily and long-term well-being. For instance, the lighter sleep of stage 1 and 2 Non-REM sleep has now been linked with learning and memory formation.🧠 😴💤 This makes getting 7-8 quality hours of nightly sleep all the more essential to ensure your brain can cycle through the 4-6 sleep cycles it needs to help you maintain peak performance. ➡️ How much sleep do you average a night?
