SolCycle develops new technologies for economically viable recycling of Styrofoam by densification of EPS using solar energy.

UPDATES:We have delivered to the consumer and clinical market an affordable, and accurate device for measuring brain health and brain injury, every day and across the lifespanhttps://www.corticalmetrics.com/braingaugeThe Brain Gauge is now FDA Listed as a cognitive assessment aidhttps://www.corticalmetrics.com/braingaugemdThe Science: We have shot way past 100 peer-reviewed publications and counting!https://www.corticalmetrics.com/publicationsTBI detection: accuracy ~93 to 98%, depends on the population being testedhttps://downloads.corticalmetrics.com/pub/tommerdahl_neurosensory_2016.pdf?n=1How it works: The Brain Gauge uses precise measures of your sensory perception and analyzes your cortical processing to give you an inside look at your brain function and fitness. It is an objective way to measure brain function, backed by years of neuroscience, in a compact, affordable product designed for home use.VISION: To revolutionize brain health assessment, and to empower the individual with the information they need to take effective action.Brain Gauge is faster, more accurate, and easier to use by a factor of 10 in every category than anything else currently available. We've reduced it to a family of commercial products that are currently available for scientific and clinical research. The CM3 can be used with magnet-based imaging systems, and the CM5 is a general use clinical/research testing device. We are also developing new ultra-low cost, high performance consumer electronic devices to allow anyone, anywhere to test their brain health.

Invent new technology and products in several areas: biomedical devices and technology, consumer electronics, educational toys, robotics, automation, instrumentation for basic scientific research.VISION #1: To deliver technology to consumers that improves their health, their knowledge, and their quality of life.VISION #2: To re-imagine how basic scientific research is conducted, and to deliver radical new low cost technologies to empower professional, amateur, and budding new scientists. We are entering a new era in human civilization, where the ready availability of information and low-cost advanced technologies and materials will enable an unprecedented popularization of the pursuit of scientific knowledge. The age of crowd-sourced science is upon us, and my vision is to do my part to make it happen.

I am no longer available for general consulting. I am currently focused on basic scientific research into regenerative medicine and fundamental mechanisms of inflammation-mediated diseases, and translation of technology from basic research into viable products for research, clinical use in veterinary and human medicine, and consumer health-related products.

I am proud to have served as both a Volunteer Firefighter and Fire Chief of the New Hope Fire Department, which is located between Chapel Hill NC and Durham NC.

Developed Time-varying Electromagnetic Field (TVEMF) technology for NASA-JSC for use with micro-gravity simulation stem cell bioreactors for basic research into stem cell biology. Since 1996-1998 the technology has evolved from the original NASA-TVEMF technology into a mature product, verified by independent laboratory testing, currently available in the global veterinary market.
