Media Coverage
On September 23, 2019, Rosa’s company announced the release of its first NeuroOne sEEG combination depth and ablation electrode[14][15]. Rosa has also been featured previously on Bloomberg’s Taking Stock show, as well as interviews for local Minneapolis TV and radio shows and been featured in numerous newspaper articles.
According to Rosa and his company, the Evo Cortical Electrode is a thin-film electrode technology which records brain activity. It has the potential to act as a reliable solution for the stimulation and ablation of patients who have epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and back pain. He emphasized that it was the first true thin film kind to receive US FDA 510(K)[16][17] commercial clearance for recording of brain activity and stimulation of brain tissue for up to 30 days.
