Newco Sononeu Inc. has launched to translate more than a decade of basic research in controlling cells with ultrasound into novel, non-invasive therapies for conditions including peripheral and diabetic neuropathy. The underlying technology of sonogenetics provides the ability to manipulate cellular activity via ultrasound-sensitive ion channels that respond to acoustic pressure. These channels may be endogenous, or could be delivered by targeted vectors to specific cell types.
