About
Luis Fennessy
Medical Student & Neurotechnology Researcher
I’m a medical student with a background in computer science and statistical modelling, passionate about the intersection of medicine, engineering, and translational healthcare. My writing focuses on understanding how emerging technologies can meaningfully improve patient outcomes while maintaining clinical rigor.
With this blog, I aim to bridge the gap between clinicians, patients, and technologists by providing clear, evidence-based analysis of developments in medical technology.
