WHO WE ARE
RyvivyR is a commercial branch off of the computational neuroscience group CATNIP Lab at the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown (Lisbon, Portugal) and Stony Brook University (Stony Brook, New York).




Ian is an applied mathematician and entrepreneur, who specializes in dynamical systems theory and its applications to correcting neurological disease. He is ultimately interested in developing consistent treatments for patients suffering from debilitating conditions.

Memming was a tenured professor of computational neuroscience at SBU and is now a senior group leader at the Champalimaud Foundation. His interests are centered around developing machine-learning methods to interpret and control neural activity in real-time.

Josue is a computational neuroscientist, who specializes in Bayesian Inference, machine-learning, and signal processing of neural data. He’s spent a multitude of years in both academia and industry, scaling production level code and training foundation models.

Kurt is a former management consultant, founder, and industry leader. He is ranked as SCORE NYC’s Top 10 Business Mentors, and ranked 21st nationwide, helping firms in various sectors launch and scale. He has a technical background in CS and Electrical Engineering.

Matt is a computational neuroscientist who specializes in neural data modeling, probabilistic ML and inference, efficient sequence architectures, and foundation model training. He’s spent a multitude of years working on research in academia and production code in industry.
