Next speaker will feature a world class physicist (who works directly with Penrose of the OR-ORCH theory ). He is going to talk about how Quantum phenomena and the theories of consciousness intersect!

NeuroTechVan Fireside brings in world class speakers to present the latest ideas in world of brain computer interfaces.
At this upcoming NeuroTechX Fireside event, globally acclaimed theoretical physicist Dr. Cisco Gooding will help our NTX members bridge the gap between neuroscience and cutting edge quantum research. Gooding provides an authoritative perspective of orchestrated objective reduction(OR-ORCH) and warm quantum coherence in biological systems. In addition to his various academic publications in theoretical physics as an independent, Gooding is a research colleague of Roger Penrose, father of "OR-ORCH" theory.
We invite you to attend this exciting exploration at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada on Sunday the 25th of June. It will be a connection of the two most revolutionary fields in our modern day: Quantum Physics and Neuroscience.
Everybody is welcome and attendance is free (as all knowledge should be).
See you there!

For those who are not in Vancouver or are unable to make it... we will be professionally filming all of this Jazz so you can check it out!

Hey <!channel>! I'm going to be visiting Vancouver next week on a business trip for my company, http://avertus.ca/
I'd love to meet some of you guys in person and talk EEG, BCI, ML, and potential collaborations. Also, if you are/anyone you know of are interested in investing in wireless, research-grade EEG backed by a data-management cloud service, I'd be happy to talk about that as well.
Most of our free time will be on Tuesday. We'll be on UBC campus
Cheers

Hey guys, we're on our way to Vancouver now.
On Tuesday, we have some meetings with researchers at the Brain Research Centre in the morning, but are free after lunch. Let us know when around then you guys might be available to meet and we'll make it work. Looking forward to showing off our tech!

Come learn how to build a Virtual Reality app that uses brainwaves at our bombastic workshop.
The event has super limited spots left and will be hosted at the Emerging Media Lab at UBC next weekend.
This will be an exciting intersection of two revolutionary technologies: Brain Computer Interfaces + VR/AR.
