Platypus Institute ^Company

The Platypus Institute provides individuals and teams with the scientific knowledge and cutting-edge tools to become peak performers with measurable competitive advantages. We translate cutting-edge neuroscience discoveries into practical tools and programs that measurably enhance human performance and advance scientific knowledge. Some examples of projects we are working on include: Developing a biofeedback and cognitive training system for elite Wall Street stock traders and portfolio managers to increase the time they are “in the zone” when making high-stakes decisions; Identifying the brainwave patterns high-performance teams experience when they are in “sync” with each other, and then using biofeedback to induce this state; Building a comprehensive neurocognitive measurement test bed to help the worlds’ elite athletes understand and optimize their mental state when under extreme pressure.
