TEAM & PARTNERS
Who we are
FOUNDERS
Founder
Olaf Blanke, EPFL
Pioneer of the neuroscience of bodily self-consciousness. He produced the first experimental and neural account of out-of-body experiences, and established VR and synchronised stimulation as precise, repeatable ways to modulate the embodied self.
Founder
Gregor Hasler, University of Fribourg
A leading psychiatrist and translational neuroscientist working on affective disorders, psychedelic-assisted therapy and neuroplasticity. His lab connects molecular neuroimaging, ketamine research and clinical translation across depression, addiction and eating disorders.
Neuroscientist and entrepreneur
Serge Weydert
Two healthtech exits: a neurorehabilitation system now used in clinics in more than 70 countries, and a wearable AI platform for training the autonomic nervous system and breathing. Now CPTO at one of Europe’s leading preventive health companies. He brings the drive to turn the Hub’s science into solutions that reach people at scale.
CORE CONTRIBUTORS
Community
Ryan Laver
A convener of communities and experiences around ambitious societal ideas. As Head of Community at to.org he brings researchers, founders and funders together at the intersection of health, culture and human potential. He builds the institution behind the science: governance, funding, partnerships, and the community the Hub depends on.
