Date: June 23–27, 2025
Location: Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, Brisbane, Australia
At the Annual Meeting of the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM) 2025, held from June 23 to 27 in Brisbane, Australia, ZenoWell’s co-founder Dr. Shaw joined the global neuroscience community to explore cutting-edge advancements in human brain research.
ZenoWell presented two original studies at this prestigious conference, showcasing the company’s commitment to scientific rigor and clinical validation of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS):
-
🧠 “Reproducibility of HRV as a Biomarker for Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation” This study examined the reliability and consistency of heart rate variability (HRV) as a physiological biomarker for taVNS interventions. The findings contribute valuable insights toward establishing HRV as a robust and measurable endpoint in neuromodulation research.
-
🧘♀️ “Alpha Modulation by Personalized TaVNS and Meditation: A High-Density EEG Exploration” Combining closed-loop, respiration-gated taVNS with meditation, this research used high-density EEG to investigate how personalized stimulation protocols can enhance alpha brainwave activity, supporting deeper and more effective meditative states.
Both studies sparked active discussion among researchers from Australia, Europe, North America, Japan, mainland China, and Taiwan, reflecting a growing international interest in the intersection of vagus nerve stimulation, brain science, and mental well-being.
ZenoWell’s presence at OHBM 2025 reinforced its role not only as a healthtech innovator, but also as a scientific contributor to the evolving field of non-invasive neuromodulation.
