Padideh

Padideh (PhD. in Neuroscience) is a world-class leader, brain scientist, innovator, entrepreneur, artist, musician, and expert in geometrical and emotional space-holding, based in the San Francisco Bay Area. She has a deep passion, knowledge, and insight into the human brain — especially the delicate junction where biological matter meets the mind and gives rise to spiritual experiences, the sense of self, creative problem-solving, and answers to life’s most difficult questions. She believes these insights emerge only through one’s inner truth, revealed from a fresh perspective during a “magic trip.” Padideh innovated Virtual Microscopy—a non-invasive MRI-based technology that sees inside the human brain and measures abnormalities in the micro-environment surrounding brain cells, the “magical Space In-Between.” Her deep-tech company, Darmiyan, secured FDA approval for the first AI platform that predicts future cognition. Padideh is also the creator of DarmiSpace, an innovative lifestyle-management tool for brain health.
