About Patricia Derrick
Patricia Derrick is the inventor of Brainpaths receiving a USPTO Utility Patent September 2015. Derrick’s team then developed the “Brainpaths device” to implement the patent: a device to fingertip-trace textures on the surface of a textured board using repetitive, strong strokes to access 3000 mechanoreceptors under the skin of each fingertip to stimulate the brain. Tracing the device repeatedly sends stimulation up the spinal column to the brain to fire and wire neurons to form networks of neurons, without using electrodes, resulting in safe, non-invasive brain stimulation without side effects.
