At Science, our cell engineers create neurons from stem cells. See what it looks like.
got super excited when i saw they made a movie about a piano tuner, then it turned out to be just another heist movie.
Ep 2 of my new podcast is out today! My guest is Ben Rapoport, co-founder and CSO of @precisionneuro.bsky.social, which has built Layer 7, an innovative BCI that reads from the cortex surface without penetrating it. Hope you enjoy the conversation! www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8-9...

Very excited for the new projects we have in the works that Jay will now be leading more directly as CIO. She has always been excellent at seeing the vision and knowing where to go, so glad that we're unburdening her from the day to day of running the company.
Some personal news: I’m transitioning from CEO to a new role as Bluesky’s Chief Innovation Officer! I’m excited to welcome @toni.bsky.team as our interim CEO. More here: bsky.social/about/blog/0...

🧠 @precisionneuro.bsky.social is moving toward a pivotal clinical trial for a fully implanted BCI system, with hardware, software, and algorithms in development. The aim: enable people with severe paralysis to engage with the digital world, return to work, or play games.
🧠 Synchron roadmap: ramp clinical trials over the next 12 months, with a goal to achieve commercial approval for an implantable brain–computer interface. Advancing implantable neurotechnology.
The next interface isn’t a screen — it’s neural. PL network team @precisionneuro.bsky.social is working at the intersection of neuroscience and digital interaction, exploring how neural signals can help people with neurodegenerative diseases.
In 2026, @bsky.app is focused on what’s next for open social: bringing together users for conversations around live events, creator and platform monetization, and private state, giving users truly private data while preserving ownership and portability at the protocol level.
In 2025, PL portfolio company @bsky.app grew from 25M to 40M+ users and shipped major progress on verification and decentralization, with 270K+ users self-verifying and 2,000+ community-run servers live - moving core infrastructure forward at scale.
The word "grapefruit" is objectively ridiculous. It's like if there was an animal that we agreed to call a "dogmammal", that had nothing to do with dogs.
