👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWayne Mackey is a research-driven entrepreneur and cognitive neuroscientist based in New York, currently Founder in Residence at New York University and founder of Statespace, with over a decade of experience bridging neuroscience and startup leadership. He leads interdisciplinary work combining computational neuroimaging, brain stimulation, eye-tracking, VR, and lesion studies to understand how the brain selects and maintains goal-relevant information for executive control. His current focus is translating insights from visual-system techniques to higher-order brain networks in order to build a biologically plausible model of how multiple regions interact to guide cognition. He aims to apply these insights to inform strategies for prevention and treatment of psychiatric and neurologic disorders such as autism, ADHD, and schizophrenia. He earned a Ph.D. in Cognition & Perception from NYU and a BA in Psychology from Temple University, and across roles at Endless Frontier Labs and NYU he blends research rigor with entrepreneurial execution.
