Back for its third year, NYBCI brought together more than 500 attendees, including 50+ speakers and leaders driving the future of neural interfaces.
Hosted by Mount Sinai BioDesign, this global symposium returned to New York City for two days of bold keynotes, panels, and breakout sessions led by the world’s foremost experts in neuroscience, surgery, neurotech, and regulation. Held at the historic New York Academy of Medicine, NYBCI is the first-of-its-kind event focused on the surgical, clinical, and commercial translation of brain-computer interface technologies.
Leaders from top startups, academic institutions, federal agencies, and patient advocacy groups gathered to define what’s next for brain tech.
The 2026 New York Brain-Computer Interface Symposium has preliminary agenda and is currently under review.
Session details, speakers, timing, and additional programming are subject to change. More sessions and speakers will be added as the program is finalized.
