Innovation of the Year 2023

Innovation of the Year: NeuroRestore’s Parkinson’s Implant

There were many breakthroughs this year but we think this one has a leg (or two) up on all the others.  The first recipient of this spinal stimulation device, a 63-year-old man with Parkinson’s disease, can now walk for miles, when previously he was often housebound and had several falls a day.

Runners Up:

R21 Malaria Vaccine – a new malaria vaccine (the world’s 2^nd) that is both more affordable and easier to manufacture than its predecessor.

LEQEMB for early onset Alzheimer’s – the only drug clinically shown to slow down cognitive decline associated with the early onset of Alzheimer’s disease.
