Ben Woodington
Ben Woodington is the co-founder and CEO of Coherence Neuro, a deep-tech company building SOMA-1, a button-sized, MRI-safe brain-computer interface that listens to and electrically modulates brain tumors from the inside. A Cambridge-trained chemist-turned-engineer who once built smart inhalers and minimally invasive spinal-cord interfaces, Woodington pivoted his neurotechnology to oncology after realizing almost no one was applying neural-interface engineering to cancer. He argues electricity should become the fourth pillar of cancer therapy alongside surgery, drugs, and radiation, and raised a $10M seed in late 2025 to take the work toward first human trials.
