BrainScanology, Inc: Common Brain Diseases: An objective diagnosis & risk score delivered in 24hr | Wefunder

The idea stared in 2018 when Dr. Dave Nguyen, PhD, invented a computational algorithm to measure the complex shapes of colon polyps. His favorite high school science teacher, Mr. Nichols, had just died of colon cancer, so Dr. Nguyen invented a method for classify complex shapes in biology to commemorate him. He named the method Linearized Compressed Polar Coordinate (LCPC) Transform

In 2019, Dr. Nguyen participated in the QBI Hackathon at the University of California-San Francisco. He was able to extract quantitatively different signatures of brain MRIs of patiens with ADHD compared to their non-affected counterparts. This began our MRI exploration of various neurological disorders

Where to Get a Diagnosis?

No objective method for early detection

No way for annual preventive tracking

Treating Brain Disorders Costs More Than Prevention

Family of Patients with Alzheimer's Disease, Bipolar Disorder, etc

The Aging Population

Manic Patients

Chronic Depression Patients

In 2013, one of Dr. Nguyen's good friends from college took his own life because of bipolar disorder. His name was Thuan Trinh. At Thuan's funeral, Dr. Nguyen promised that he would do something about bipolar disorder one day. At the time, Dr. Nguyen was studying cancer biology, so he didn't know what that promise would even look like. However, in 2018 when the LCPC Transform was created --six years after wandering away from cancer biology and into computational biology-- and Dr. Nguyen realized exactly what his promise to Thuan would be like: BrainScanology
