Background

About Tracy Brandmeyer

Dr. Tracy Brandmeyer is a neuroscientist and biotech executive with over two decades of experience at the intersection of neuroscience, mental health, consciousness and neurotechnology. She holds a PhD in Neuroscience from the CNRS in France, an MSc in Neuropsychology from the Donders Institute in the Netherlands, and completed her postdoctoral training in Integrative Neuroscience at the University of California, San Francisco, and the UCSF Osher Center for Integrative Medicine. As CEO of Cognigenics, Dr. Brandmeyer is leading the development of next-generation RNA-based therapeutics for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. The company’s intranasal RNA modulation platform enables non-invasive, targeted, and lasting neural modulation, offering a scalable alternative to traditional pharmacological and device-based approaches. By combining genetic precision with novel delivery science, Cognigenics is setting the new standard for precision neuropsychiatric interventions. Dr. Brandmeyer’s scientific work has spanned cognitive neuroscience, meditation, and neuromodulation, with a particular focus on how real-time brain feedback and mental training shape neural plasticity. In addition to her work at Cognigenics, she serves as the fractional Chief Science Officer at BrainMind, as an advisor to Lionheart Ventures, as well as an adjunct faculty member at the Institute for Neural Computation at UC San Diego.
