Innovative Silicon Valley

Silicon Valley is a nickname given for the southern portion of the San Francisco Bay Area. It is home to many of the world's largest and innovative technological corporations and is a hub for technology startups. The term originally refereed to the region's large number of silicon chip innovators and manufacturers, but is now used to refer to the American high-technology economic sector.

NeuroVigil has a satellite research facility located at the historic NASA Ames Research Center, in the heart of Silicon Valley. Because of its key location we are able to partner with many affiliates such as Stanford University and NASA, bringing leading innovations of the unknown mind to the forefront of technology. 

Science, Medicine, and Technology: 

 Stanford University is located between San Francisco and San Jose. It is one of the world's leading teaching and reserach universities. Since its opening in 1891, Stanford has been dedicated to finding solutions to big challenges and to preparing students for leadership in a complex world. 

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center is one of 10 NASA field Centers. For more than 60 years, Ames has be on the frontier of world-class research and development in the areas of entry systems, supercomputer, NextGen air transportation, Airborne science, Low-cost missions, Biology & astrobiology, Exoplanets, Autonomey & robotics, Lunar science, Human Factors, and wind tunnels. 

Moffet Federal Airfield or Naval Air Station Moffet Field, is currently operated by NASA. In 1933 the United States Government commissioned the federal airfield, with the original missions to serve as a home base for the Navy dirigible the U.S.S. Macon. The military base was closed on July 1, 1994 and supervision of the federal base was turned over to NASA Ames reseach center. Historic Hangar One was slated to become SpaceWorld Hangar One, a planned interactive space and science center, but polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been found in the building which, due to their toxicity to humans and the environment, must be remediated or contained. The US Navy, in cooperation with the Environmental Protection Agency, Regional Water Quality Control Board, and other community stakeholders, is in the process of determining how best to remove the threat the hangar poses to the public and the environment. At this juncture, the decision to either tear down or clean up Hangar One has not been reached. More information is available from NASA Ames Environmental Services.
