Science Ecosystem

Full-stack neural engineering platform

The world's most advanced neural interfaces are built on the Science Ecosystem

Our clinical-grade neural engineering research and development platform offers a complete set of world-class plug-and-play software and hardware solutions built to meet the needs of the most rigorous brain-computer interface applications.

Powered by Synapse OS, the ecosystem enables on-device signal processing and compute in real-time, with over-the-air access to data streams from any position in the signal chain. Our modern, modular tooling accelerates development and lets your team focus on innovating where it matters most.

Science Ecosystem's power and adaptability comes from its unique three-part architecture

By streamlining BCI systems into three parts, the headstage, the adapter, and the probe, the Science Ecosystem enables a modular approach to BCI development.

Probes directly contact with the brain to record and stimulate neural activity

Adapters convey data and power between the probe and the headstage

Headstages

On-device compute for ultra-low latency data processing

Our headstages serve as the intelligent hub of your signal chain. Whether running complex lab models or delivering real-time clinical data, this edge-first architecture puts processing exactly where it’s needed.

Adapters

Bridge the gap to future innovation with Axon probe adapters

Designed to support standard legacy probe connectors as well as next-generation, fully implantable recording and stimulation probes.

Probes

Build your probe with us, or bring your own

We'll meet you where you are, with full-service fabrication, open documentation for custom probe development, and support for your specific application.

Focus on your innovation

Bring your probe

Bring your own innovative probe technology, or work with Science’s Foundry to develop something new. With world-class engineered integration solutions, off-the-shelf technology, and full service foundry support, we meet you where you are.

Ecosystem

Bring your model

Connect your analysis pipelines, ML models, or custom software through the Synapse SDK to stream neural data directly into your tools over standard protocols. Client libraries provide typed access to every signal chain on the headstage.

Ready to start building?

Tell us about your project and we'll connect you with the right team — whether that's probe engineering, headstage integration, software, or fabrication. A few details will help us respond more effectively:

  • Hardware

    Will you use our probes, design your own, or bring existing hardware?

  • Application

    What indications or research questions are you targeting?

  • Timeline

    Is this an acute study, a chronic implant, or early-stage exploration?
