About Us

We are engineers, scientists and medical professionals, passionate about improving brain health. We all have different experiences; some have family members with dementia, some with epilepsy, some with sleep disorders, others faced challenges with mental health, and others simply frustrated at not fully utilising their brain. Our top criteria for joining the team is that you are passionate about the mission!

Our Story

Passionate about finding solutions to improve brain health, driven by their own experiences of dementia and stroke, Ed and Josh founded huru in 2021.

By combining the latest microchip fabrication technology breakthroughs with emerging neuroscience research they started developing hardware and software and trialing what could work.

Soon after building their first product they partnered with Neurowyzer, a Singapore based neuroscience company pioneering in digital brain health assessments.

Together with funding from International investors, European and UK grants, and partnerships with Bristol and Exeter universites huru is translating cutting edge research into products that improve brain health.
